Insects & spiders on Bursaria spinosa - a research project.

Posted by MichaelBedingfield

"Insects & spiders on Bursaria spinosa" is a research project to find out how many species of insects & spiders use Bursaria spinosa for feeding on. This shrub is ecologically important because it supports a great variety of invertebrate life. Some species may feed on the flowers and others may prey on the insects. Pollinators, predators and parasites are all included. Add your sightings to this collection to inform the research.
