It is believed that Socotra got its name from Sanskrit, meaning “Island of Bliss.” Others suggest the name was derived from Arabic and means “dripping frankincense.” It may be a bit of both, currently unspoiled by man, but most people know of Socotra as being “the most alien-looking place on Earth.” It’s like a whole another world, like a different dimension。TVBNOW 含有熱門話題,最新最快電視,軟體,遊戲,電影,動漫及日常生活及興趣交流等資訊。7 {9 w5 N, z3 f7 z4 O* e% c/ X
索科特拉島 (阿拉伯語:سقطرى;Socotra;Suquṭra;Soqotra) 是西印度洋西北部的一群島,位於阿拉伯海與亞丁灣的交界處是由4座小島組合而成,屬於也門哈達拉毛省領土。Socotra (Arabic: سُقُطْرَى‎;Suquṭra;Soqotra) is a small archipelago of four islands in the Indian Ocean. It lies in the north-western corner of the Western Indian Ocean, at the junction between the Gulf of Aden and the Arabian Sea, belong to part of the Republic of Yemen.

脫離非洲大陸已經有1800萬年的歷史,長期的地理隔離加上惡劣乾燥的環境氣候,孕育出極罕見的物種: 825種植物中有307種(37%),90%的爬蟲動物和95%的蝸牛品種,都是在地球上其它地方找不到的。聯合國教科文組織已於2008年將索科特拉島列入世界自然遺產。

Huge number of flora and fauna on Socotra are endemic, i.e., they are found nowhere else on Earth: 37% of Socotra’s 825 plant species, 90% of its reptile species and 95% of its land snail species. The island was recognized by the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) as a world natural heritage site in July 2008.公仔箱論壇% m8 k1 f1 \4 x$ q6 a8 Z
索科特拉島島上最著名的物種是龍血樹 (Dracaena Cinnabari),看起來就像飛碟一樣,帶著深紅色的樹汁。
/ ^8 j1 c: }7 e8 VOne of the most striking of Socotra’s plants is the dragon’s blood tree (Dracaena Cinnabari), which is a strange-looking, UFO-shaped tree. The tree is so named because any possible injury to the bark results in a deep red liquid that excretes from the scar.

& }4 _. m: w2 qThe tree can live to 5000 or 6000 years old. Its red sap was thought to be the dragon’s blood of the ancients, sought after as a medicine and a dye, also inscribe as magical seals and talismans. Some scientists blame a lack of water caused by a decrease in seasonal cloud cover—and predict that many stands could disappear within a century.
