New invasive species has been detected in the basin
As part of the botanical monitoring of the LIFE ALNUS project in the Besòs river basin, a new invasive species (still not documented) has been detected in the basin, the xia (Salvia hispanica).
“People buy the seeds, which are eaten raw in salads. When they wash the dishes, all those seeds that have not been eaten go into the sink, and from the sink they go into the river,” says Andreu Salvat, one of the biologists in charge.
