Flowers and insects of the dry Chaco

In-between the valley of the Conlara river and the Comechingones mountains, in central Argentina

I recently spent some days of relax in what’s the southern part of the ecological region dubbed “Chaco seco" or “dry Chaco” in central Argentina. Despite having “dry" in its name, this region is the habitat of an important number of plant and animal species. In this photo story and its follow up I share with you my best shots of some of its flowers, and some insects posing on them.

If you like plants and flowers of dry environments, you cannot miss these photo stories:
