It has been estimated that the population consists of around 20 individuals of the <em>Euphorbia stygiana<\/em> ssp. <em>santamariae<\/em>, one of the rarest species of Azorean flora, and that this population is located within the Ba\u00eda do Cura Protected Area for the Management of Habitats and Species.<\/p>\n<p>Given the orography of the site and the difficulty of access, it will be hard to carry out characterisation and conservation work on the species. Nevertheless, there will be potential to collect seeds from some individuals for propagation in nurseries and subsequent reinforcement planting under action C3.2 \u201c<em>In-situ<\/em> conservation\u201d of the LIFE IP AZORES NATURA project.<\/p>\n<p>As well as the\u00a0<em>Euphorbia stygiana<\/em>\u00a0ssp.\u00a0<em>santamariae<\/em>, several other endemic and native species were also observed, such as: Azorean Fleshy Bishopsweed (<em>Ammi seubertianum<\/em>)<em>, <\/em>Azorean Bellflower (<em>Azorina vidalii<\/em>), Azorean Sandspurry (<em>Spergularia azorica<\/em>)<em>, <\/em>Azorean Coastal Fescue (<em>Festuca petraea<\/em>)<em>, <\/em>Azorean St. John&#8217;s Wort (<em>Hypericum foliosum<\/em>), Azorean Coastal Spurge (<em>Euphorbia azorica<\/em>)<em>, <\/em>Macaronesian Umbrella Milkwort (<em>Tolpis succulenta<\/em>), Buck&#8217;s-horn Plantain (<em>Plantago coronopus<\/em>) e Mediterranean Sea Lavender (<em>Limonium vulgare<\/em>).
