Invertebrates

Record your invertebrate observations here

Invertebrates are all around our natural spaces, and their diversity is huge. Some, such as stag beetles or various species of butterflies/dragonflies are rare and great indicators of good habitat. Any recordings of invertebrates are really useful for maintaining our spaces for nature.

Our extensive selection of FSC Field guides will help you to identify anything from butterflies to dragonflies to ladybirds, bees to long horn beetles to shield bugs.

We also have a set of sweep nets available to borrow.

These are used like in this video. We can lend out some white display trays and bug pots to observe creatures found as well.

All invertebrate records should be sent to TVERC.
