- Sierra Bermeja es una cadena montañosa en el suroeste de Puerto Rico. Cubre un área con la Laguna Cartagena, al norte, hasta el Mar Caribe al sur. Desde el Bosque de Boquerón hacia el oeste, a La Parguera hacia el este. Consiste en una combinación de rocas volcánicas, completamente atravesadas por fallas serpentinitas y anfibolitas, que bien podrían ser las rocas más antiguas conocida de Puerto Rico. Las montañas fueron utilizados por los taínos como refugio contra los españoles y luego por los contrabandistas durante la colonización española. (es)
- Sierra Bermeja is a mountain range in southwestern Puerto Rico. It forms the southern boundary of the Lajas Valley and it is bordered by La Parguera in the Caribbean Sea coast. It extends from the municipality of Cabo Rojo in the west to Lajas in the east. It consists of a combination of volcanic rocks, completely crossed by serpentinite and amphibolite faults, which could well be the oldest known rock in Puerto Rico. The mountains were used by the Taíno people as refuge from the Spanish, and then by smugglers during the Spanish colonization. The Sierra Bermeja is the nesting place of many species that feed in the Laguna Cartagena. These hills are among a few forested areas of the southwestern coastal plain, characterized by its aridity. As a result, the Sierra provides the requirements for a large quantity of wildlife established in the area, many of it endangered. In 2015, volunteers searched the area for a meteorite that, according to NASA, may have landed in Sierra Bermeja. Development in the region had become a threat to the area, despite being one of the most important natural areas in Puerto Rico. In June 2018, funds were earmarked for universities in Puerto Rico to use for research of the Sierra Bermeja region. Local folklore surrounding the area says there is a secret UFO base somewhere in the Sierra Bermeja. Conservation efforts have been ongoing, spearheaded by the US Fish and Wildlife and landowners. The highest point of this range is located on Cerro Mariquita within the municipality of Cabo Rojo. (en)
- La Sierra Bermeja è una piccola catena montuosa situata nella regione sud-occidentale dell'isola di Porto Rico, nei pressi di Lajas, a sud della Cordillera Central. I geologi vi hanno trovato le rocce più antiche di Porto Rico, risalenti al Giurassico, che hanno approssimativamente 190 milioni di anni. Queste rocce possono far parte della crosta oceanica e si pensa che siano giunte addirittura dalla piattaforma oceanica del Pacifico. (it)
