1. Spanish animals in
danger

3. Description
The salamander is a specie amphibian family
urodelo Salamandridae.
Adults aged 18 to 25 cm including the tail, with
females slightly larger. In exceptional cases may
reach 28 or 30 cm. Thick body and short tail, no
dorsal or caudal crest.
Habitat
It is a nocturnal animal, but may be active
during the day if the relative humidity is
high, on rainy days or foggy, and when the
temperature is cool but more than 3 C. By
day takes refuge under leaf litter, fallen
trees or under rocks.
Larvae are found in streams and clean
water sources.

5. Species endemic to the Sierra de Guadarrama, where their
populations have declined dramatically, which requires the
highest degree of protection. Appears distributed by the
mountainous areas of the eastern half of mainland
linked to the masses Pinus sylvestris below 1600 m.
altitude. Fly between twilight and dusk from May to June in
different pinos.Sus ovopositando main threats are forest
fires and some pressure
commercial for its beauty. The stocking of Scots pine is
favoring the growth of their populations.

6. Caterpillar reaches 60 mm.
long, brownish gray and green
young then, with a fairly broad
dorsal line of orange ocher
dotted with white, and some
scattered white hairs. The
chrysalis, about 35 mm long, is
protected by a strong brown
cocoon under leaves or moss
from the stones.

7. Mediterranean tortoise
The tortoise (Testudo
hermanni) is one of the
eight turtle species
traditionally classified
within the genus
Testudo

8. Habitat
The turtles prefer areas of low slope steppe
vegetation, bushes and shrubs of small size,
typical of Mediterranean vegetation.
They can live
over 80 years.
They are mostly herbivorous reptiles. The
wild live in a habitat that is characterized by
long periods of drought that forces them to
feed on dried herbs. In these cases, they
supplement their diet by eating arthropods
or snails, the latter are an important source
of calcium, which brings the shell.

9. Samarugo
• The Samarugo (Valencia hispanica) or samaruc (in Valencian) is a fish actinopterigio, euryhaline,
native to the still water and streams in the area of the Mediterranean coast. It is one of the three
species that are native ciprinodontiformes the Iberian Peninsula, together with (Aphanius iberus)
and Salinete (Aphanius baeticus).
Hábitat
• We found in marshes and fresh water springs in the southern part of Europe, especially in
Valencia, having disappeared from other areas. It is threatened by habitat destruction, to the
extent that it has been argued that only he could be found in three areas, small streams of water
very clean, but has now been given enough repopulation through conservation actions
undertaken, with which have recovered ranges.
He felt like a piece of aquarium, but today the regulation and the difficulty of their care they do
funny that way.
• It is a small fish that barely reaches 8 cm. It is characterized by a mouth with teeth jaw with a
single tip, arranged in several rows, and a color between brown and yellow (males also have the
edges of the fins orange).

10. Why is in danger?
• The Samarugo is considered endangered by the Spanish legislation (Royal Decree 439/1990) and
the Valencian regional (Decree 265/1994), and included as a matter of priority species in Annex II
of the Habitats Directive of the Union Europe.
The disappearance of Samarugo was due mainly to habitat destruction because of the fierce real
estate speculation in Valencia, with the subsequent drying of wetlands. They have also influenced
the water pollution by urban waste and the introduction of exotic species.
Collecting has also influenced its decline, as it was appreciated by aquarists, though that interest
has diminished in colorful tropical species.
To recover, insufficiently investigated, has
been bred in captivity and are regenerating
some of their habitats.

It is normal inhabitant of the coniferous
forests and is also present in other wooded
land. It is active during the day searching
for and consuming fruits, seeds, bark and
even insects, eggs and poultry. Does not
hibernate but remains active by consuming
what has been stored in different cavities
of trees and rocks. It operates in the trees
but does not hesitate to get them off to
collect food. Also anything with ease

15. Normally lives in the shady areas of coniferous forests, although it can
be found in deciduous forests, and is most common in areas of low
mountain at altitude, preferring young, closed forests.
The nests are spherical, with an approximate size of 22 cm., And have

be plugged from the inside. They are usually placed between tree
branches and its interior is lined with moss, leaves, twigs, straw or
lichens.
