Unesco World Natural Heritage Dolomites

Dolomythos will explain just what it is that makes the Dolomites Alps so unique. In the middle of the Dolomites, Michael Wachtler, near Braies, discovered a previously unexplored fossilized world. Dozens of unknown plants, reptiles and fish have been unearthed so far. Some of these findings are described in the documents that helped to convince UNESCO experts of the area’s unique nature.

The new species of lizard brought to light in the Dolomites of the Braies area in recent years are now on display in the Dolomythos Museum.

This recently discovered species of fern is still awaiting its scientific name. Who knows what name they’re finally going to give it?
