In this power point you are going to learn
about the wild life in La Linea de la
Concepcion. Our group chose la Linea
because we thought that it would be fun
to investigate the wildlife of our zone and
to learn more about it. We hope that you
enjoy our presentation 

Wildlife
What is going to come out next is
some information of a few of the
insects that can be found in la Linea
de la Concepcion. We don´t have a
lot of variety but there are some very
interesting species.. And some very
digusting ones !
The erodius gorgyl is a specie that prospers
better in warm environments.
You can normally find it in sandy places like
the beach where it leaves curious marks
where it can bury itself and hide there.
It´s body is black and oval and it isn´t a very
big insect.
The bright wave ( idaea ochrata) is a moth of
          the family of geometridae. It is found in europe.
          It has a windspam of 21-24 mm.
          The adults fly at night from June to early
          August.




In spring the adults come out and when they have reproduced the
female puts its eggs safely dug into the ground. The eggs are in the
ground during the whole winter without any activity whatsoever.
With the coming of spring (second year) the larvae come out of
their hole and start to feed making their body size increase aswell
as their voracity. After this they bury themselves again to hibernate.
In the third year they come out again to feed once more but only for
very little months because they have practically developed.
We didn`t find many plants that could be
found in la Linea but the ones we DID
find were really amazing and beautiful !
We really learnt a lot from what we
found out about these plants
In the month of july it is possible
  to find this pretty flower with bits
  of purple in it in the zone of “ las
  covezuelas “.
  Although it looks like a thistle it
  belongs to a totally different
  family.


It is a plant that can grow up
to 40 cm with very little
ramifications. Its lower leaves
are deeply divided into very
fine segments. Its flowers
form a long cluster and they
are blue in colour.
It is a climbing-creeeping plant that can grow from 0,5-2
metres. The leaves are spirally arranged. The flowers
are trumpet-shaped, 1-2.5 cm diameter, white or pale
pink, with five slightly darker pink radial stripes.
Flowering occurs in the mid-summer, when white to pale
pink, funnel-shaped flowers develop. Fruit are light
brown. Each fruit contains 2 seeds that are eaten by
birds.



   The sea holly is native to most european
   coastlines. In some ways, it resembles a flowering
   thistle, in that its flower is burr-shaped, though
   these are metallic blue, rather than mauve. The
   protected dune plant grows to a height of 20 to
   60 cm. Although widespread, it is considered
   endangered
Seagulls

Pigeon`s
Gulls are typically medium to large birds, usually
grey or white, often with black markings on the head
or wings. They typically have harsh wailing or
squawking calls, stout, longish bills, and webbed
feet. Most gulls, particularly larus species, are
ground-nesting carnivores, which will take live food
or scavenge opportunistically. Live food often
includes crabs and small fish
Pigeons and doves are stout-
Generally, sparrows tend to be small, plump    bodied birds with short necks,
brown-grey birds with short tails and stubby, and have short slender bills
powerful beaks. They are physically similar to with a fleshy cere. The species
other seed-eating birds. They can be found in commonly referred to just as
europe aswell as other countries, they are     "pigeon" is the Feral Rock
quite social birds.                            Pigeon, common in many cities.
                                               Doves and pigeons build
                                               relatively flimsy nests from
                                               sticks and other debris, which
                                               may be placed in trees, on
                                               ledges or on the ground,
                                               depending on species. They lay
                                               one or two eggs, and both
                                               parents care for the young,
                                               which leave the nest after 7 to
                                               28 days. Doves feed on seeds,
                                               fruit and plants.
The male which is found throughout most
of Europe, is all black except for a yellow
eye-ring and beak and has a rich melodious
song; the adult female and juvenile have
mainly dark brown plumage. This species
breeds in woods and gardens, building a
neat, mud-lined, cup-shaped nest. It is
omnivorous, eating a wide range of insects,
earthworms, berries, and fruits. It is also
called Eurasian Blackbird.
The Male has blackish- brown legs,a
yellow-eye ring and an orange beak. The
female is sooty-brown with a dull yellowish
beak.
This bit of the presentation is all
about the fishes you can find in la
linea , these fishes you can more or
less find them everywhere but there
are interesting species!
The turbot is a large left-eyed flatfish found
               primarily close to the shore in sandy shallow waters
               throughout the Mediterranean , the Baltic sea , the
               Black sea and the North Atlantic. The european
               turbot has an asymmetrical disk-shaped body and
               is known to grow up to 100cm.




The gilthead fish is one of the most
appreciated , it usually lives in
shallow waters. Either in sandy or
rocky. It is very appreciated in all the
Mediterranean. It is shiny, silver in
colour and its body is ovaled and
compressed. Its name comes from
the golden speck it has in-between
its eyes (“dorada”)
Very solid , thick shell rounded contour and
symmetrical valves. The “ribs” on the sides are rows
of bumps. Their colour is usually reddish-brown and
its interior is white, it can grow up to 9cm in length!




      The european seabass, dicentrarchus labrax, also
      known as morone labrax, is a primarily ocean-going
      fish that sometimes enters blackish and fresh
      waters. It is also known as thesea drace . The name
      dicentrarchus derives from the presence of two
      dorsal fins. It has silver sides and a white belly.
      Juvenile fish maintain black spots on the back and
      sides,

    as we have enjoyed doing it ! And we hope that you
    have learnt a lot about the wildlife in la linea !
