This
list includes all species reported from Dawlish Warren NNR and surrounding
recording area.
The NNR covers some 210 hectares [505 acres] however, only c.35% of this
consists of terrestrial habitats. The sandspit
from Langstone Rock at its Western end to the end of Warren point is only 2.25
kilometres long [1.4 miles] and roughly 0.4 kilometres wide [0.25 miles].
It
is our intention to try to locate Dawlish Warren photographs of as many species
as possible both common species and rarities.
