On the island of Corvo, where LIFE IP AZORES NATURA continues to carry out nature conservation work, a population of Myosotis azorica has been reinforced in the Caldeirão area, with around 150 new individuals of this species.
Myosotis azorica is a protected species under the Habitats Directive, which is in an unfavourable state of conservation according to the latest assessment. It is one of the rarest plants in the Azores and can only be found on the islands of Flores and Corvo.
The reinforcement of this population is in line with the conservation work on this island, namely Action C3.2, “Implementation of work for the conservation of endemic flora: In-situ conservation”.
