Scilly's Special Species

Here you will find information regarding Scilly's special and talked-about species. In some cases they are endemic; please note that we have just picked a handful of species we are most commonly asked about as this list would otherwise be huge!

The Isles of Scilly Wildlife Trust's habitat management and habitat restoration work aims to promote and support many of these species whilst our education programme hopes to raise awareness of these important often unnoticed Scillonian characters and visitors.

Do remember that we rely on donations to continue our work. If you have searched, found and learned about our wildlife on our website, please visit our appeals page and give what you can; thank you.
