Abstract
The activities of conservation of the flora of the Columbretes Islands Natural Park (UTM 31 S CE 01, Castellon, Valencian Community, Spain) are exposed. Since 1987 it is being developed a conservation project of endemic species (Medicago arborea subsp. citrina and Lobularia maritima subsp. columbretensis) by means of «ex situ» conservation techniques (seed-banks) and also «in situ» ones (propagation and réintroduction of M.a. subsp. citrina in one of the islands of the achipelago, as well as recovery of the most important and threatened climacic arbustive species of these islands (Chamaerops humilis, Pistacia lentiscus, Withania frutescens, Smilax aspera and Lycium intricatum).
