Emys orbicularis in Andujar (Southern Spain)

by Michael Richardson - 16/3/2010 15h29

I'm visiting Andujar at the end of the week in a quest for Iberian Lynx and any herps I may come across.

I understand Emys orbicularis occur in the area, although I have not found any concrete evidence of this.

I understand site details are not given on public forums, but any confirmation they are found in the region would be great (as would an email with any more details).

Thanks

I can confirm the presence of Emys in Andujar. I was there in this time of year (3 years ago) and saw this adult in this pool. I also saw a subadult lynx on this exact spot, and another adult male the next day a few kilometers further on.

That's great. Probably a little more water in the pond now!
I'm really looking forward to this trip. Thanks for the help from everyone.
