Araba Bioscan 27 November to 4 December 2020

Data for the period 27 November to 4 December 2020

See the Araba Bioscan Project page for background information on the project and methods.

Notes

The trap continues to collect a wide diversity of insects in the new location. I’ve photographed a larger-than-usual selection, including several striking flies and wasps, and three different beetles from the family Mordellidae (tumbling flower beetles).

Many thanks to all those who have assisted with identifications on iNaturalist or in person.
