Gran Scala and endemism of Los Monegros

many days and without writing in these virtual pages. So to make today will be two new entries. This weekend I participated in a "testing", a marathon photo, in Los Monegros. This is a project in which dozens of nature photographers who love photographing insects specimens of the same so that after some experts analyze and classify.
The choice of Los Monegros was not accidental because in these beautiful landscapes full of life (one of the ecosystems with the largest number of endemic entomological world) speculators with the Government of Aragon to jelly want to build Greater Scala. This is a huge project, as well as building a city of gambling (sic) to live Las Vegas hotels, "villas", malls and golf courses.
The project aims to get called a map of the Peninsula in the representation of all the possible endemics "bugs" in order to demonstrate their biological wealth and provide arguments for the conservation of ecosystems inhabited by them.
The initiative is the Insectarium virtual organziación and you can see more at: http://www.insectariumvirtual.com/blog-iv/
