Glow worms, slime moulds and rare lichens are among 1,109 species discovered in just one corner of Scotland's rainforest.

They were recorded on the West Cowal peninsula by the Argyll Countryside Trust (ACT) in the first survey to be carried out in the area in half a century.

The survey is part of a citizen science project which aims to better understand the role played by rainforests in supporting biodiversity. The project hopes to establish a baseline of the type of life being supported.
