Resum

Observations on distribution, habitat and behaviour of Pyrenean Desman Galemys pyrenaicus in the Torío River (León, Spain)
G. pyrenaicus is distributed along the whole Torío River, and it also occupies its affluents and the irrigating ditches. Although this species is mainly nocturnal, the data reveal a partially diurnal activity, both in the morning and in the afternoon. The first record of predation on G. pyrenaicus by White Stork (Ciconia ciconia), is reported.
