carvalheiro

Uno de los árboles caducifolios más importantes y extendidos de Europa, el roble pedunculado (Quercus robur) puede vivir más de 1.000 años, alcanzar 40 metros de altura y albergar la mayor biodiversidad de cualquier especie arbórea europea: más de 2.300 especies de insectos, hongos, líquenes, musgos y aves dependen directamente de los robles maduros. Distribuido por Europa hasta Asia occidental en bosques templados, su madera dura y duradera ha sido fundamental en la construcción naval, la arquitectura y la fabricación de barriles a lo largo de la historia.
