These areas allows the occorrence of such singular species as the Hypecoum littorale, classified as vulnerable in the list of endangered species.

Fauna

Recognized as one of the main birdwatching sites in the country, Ria Formosa is rather unique not only the species richness but as well as the abundance of individuals and the easeness of observation. Besides avifauna, it is also well known for the tradition of bivalve culture, very typical of these áreas, as well as for the presence of animals as symbolic as the common chameleon and seahorses.
