ORIGEN - SOTRES – BULNES – MAJADA DE AMUESA – JOU DE LOS CABRONES (13 km- desnivel 2100m+ y 662m- duración caminata aprox 8 horas) El primer día de trekking saldremos desde Sotres, el pueblo más alto de Picos de Europa, situado a 1050m sobre el nivel del mar, y último pueblo del Principado de Asturias antes de entrar en Cantabria. Para los montañeros es el lugar idóneo para empezar rutas y escaladas. ¡Aquí las montañas se imponen frente a nuestros ojos! La actividad pastoril siempre tuvo y todavía mantiene una grande importancia en esta zona y se pueden admirar las majadas con las cabañas de pastores. Se añade la elaboración del queso Cabrales, ya que en Sotres hay un alto número de cuevas naturales para la maduración del queso. En muchos casos han obtenido galardones en los certámenes oficiales de este producto artesano. Desde Sotres, llegaremos a Collado Pandebano por una pista ganadera y un sendero entre bosques y bajaremos a Bulnes. Utilizaremos el sendero de los pastores que siempre han utilizado para ir a Bulnes y coincide con un tramo de la Ruta de la Reconquista, sendero que utilizaron los Moros para escapar del ejército de Don Pelayo en el 722 d.C. después de la derrota de la Batalla de Covadonga. Bulnes es el solo pueblo que no se puede llegar con el coche y que hasta hace 15 años se podía llegar solo por senderos.

    The Coleopterists Bulletin, 64(3): 201–219. 2010. DIVERSITY OF WATER BEETLES IN PICOS DE EUROPA NATIONAL PARK,SPAIN: INVENTORY COMPLETENESS AND CONSERVATION ASSESSMENT LUIS F. VALLADARES Departamento de Biodiversidad y Gestión Ambiental (Zoología) Facultad de Ciencias Biológicas y Ambientales, Universidad de León 24071 León, SPAIN [email protected] ANDRÉS BASELGA Departamento de Zoología Facultad de Biología, Universidad de Santiago de Compostela 15782 Santiago de Compostela, SPAIN [email protected] AND JOSEFINA GARRIDO Departamento de Ecología y Biología Animal Facultad de Biología, Universidad de Vigo 36310 Vigo, SPAIN [email protected] ABSTRACT The diversity of true water beetles (Coleoptera: Gyrinidae, Haliplidae, Dytiscidae, Helophoridae, Hydrochidae, Hydrophilidae, Hydraenidae, Elmidae, and Dryopidae) in Picos de Europa National Park (Cantabrian Mountains, Spain) was examined. Taking into account historic long-term sampling (all collections from 1882 to the present), a total of 117 species are recorded. Species accumulation models and non-parametric estimators were used to estimate the actual species richness of aquatic Coleoptera occurring in Picos de Europa National Park. Estimates were generated by ana- lyzing both the collector’s curve from the long-term sampling and the historic cumulative curve of species recorded from the park since 1882. Values of species richness estimated by different methods range from 127 to 170 species (mean = 148 ± 15 SD). Therefore, it seems that the current inventory has reached a reasonably good level of completeness as estimates indicate that about 80% of the water beetle fauna has already been recorded. The inventory is used to analyze the biological uniqueness of the park and its outstanding level of species richness and endemism (33 Iberian endemic species).
