Hello,

I'm Robin, from Corsica. I'm a biology ("SVT") teacher in secondary school.
I am actually working in Cannes, near Nice, in the "Alpes-Maritimes" of France.

I'm particularly interested in amphibians and insects (Orthoptera) and with my wife we always try to make somes trips for photographying species we haven't already seen.

I found your forum in searching for information about Salamandrina perspicillata.

I'm already member of the forum of Pierre-Yves Vaucher who you already know I think . I'm also an animator of the french entomology forum : http://www.insecte.org.

This is a picture of Salamandra corsica, wich is without a doubt my favorite species of Amphibians :


Greetings,
Robin

ps : sorry, my english is bad !

Welcome! To live on Corsica must be great...

Hello, welcome

Cheers Paul

Welcome, and nice photo!

Welcome here from another biology teacher Can't wait to see more pictures here from Corsican herpetofauna, have to go back there one day, beautiful place...

Salut Robin et bienvenu sur le forum,

As you are from Corsica and active as an entomologist member, I was wondering if you had any info/personal observation about your local "Malmignatte"?

See you,

Guillaume

Thanks guys !

Our Malmignatte, Latrodectus tredecimguttatus, is verry common in "maquis" area especially near "Calvi" and "Île-rousse". I have some photo of this spider, but that's all, Arachnids are not my speciality in Entomology (like I said it's Orthoptera, and also Myriapods)
