It’s firefly season!🪲

Peak activity of fireflys is usually in the third week of June.
Fireflies are highly threatened by habitat destruction, artificial light (light pollution), and pesticides.

Upload your sightings to Citizen Science Apps like #NatureSpots, BOB, spot-a-bee, Nature's Calendar and — if you live in Vienna — umweltberatung.at/gluehwuermch

🔍 You can find all #CitSci Apps on the SPOTTERON platform here: spotteron.net/apps

Let’s work together to protect these magical insects!

@pathunstrom i remember when citsci2017 made the difficult (from a logistics point of view) decision to move their conference due to discriminatory laws passed in NC. they were ahead of the curve (nearly a decade), given the situation today.

i applaud that decision then and submit it as inspiration to other conferences to hopefully make the right decision now.

Today I chatted with Jesse Mulligan on #RNZ Afternoons, because #iNaturalistNZ is just a whisker (or an antenna or a hypha) away for *3 million observations*(!!).

Earlier in the week we were thinking we might pass the 3 million milestone on Christmas Eve, but now it’s looking like we’ll pass it tomorrow. At the moment we’re at 2,999,457 observations, of 23,518 species (about 30% of NZ’s named species), observed by 50,519 (not far off 1% of NZers).

@albertcardona It's an extraordinary milestone by #iNaturalist. So *many* species!

I've been looking at what % of NZ's species have been observed on #iNaturalistNZ. We've observed 23,522 so far. The NZ Organisms Register lists 69,018 known species. The Ministry for the Environment estimates around 80,000 native species in NZ but only 30,000 of those have scientific names.

So, using NZOR, folk on iNat NZ have so far found about 34% of all of NZ's named species (and climbing!).

Here's a weird thing. It's a manawa, NZ mangrove, but not in the upper North Island. Brett Robinson on #iNaturalistNZ found one in an estuary in Collingwood, in the upper South Island. That's about 450 km south of its natural distribution limit.

#iNaturalist people have reported manawa seeds, sometimes germinating, on lower North Island beaches. Maybe they're liking the warming waters to the south.
