For this nature walk, I went to the Boston Public Gardens before going out to see a movie. This nature walk was done during a calm, sunny day, with many people enjoying their walks around the park. Most if not all of the plants at the public gardens are captive, but it did allow me to get examples of many different types of plants (i.e. ferns, angiosperms). I could not find any mosses around, as they are more likely to grow in dark, damp areas, so i substituted in an eastern gray squirre...

Hola! muy buenos días a todos los colaboradores
Como sabrán actualmente existen, dentro de iNaturalistCL más de 4000 registros de chinitas encontradas a lo largo del país, cifra que incrementa cada día. Estos datos que son fundamentales para poder conocer a las diferentes especies y su distribución espacio temporal, además de los hábitat que estas frecuentan, ya que de esta manera podemos ayudar a su conservación y también beneficiarnos de los servicios ecosistémicos que nos brindan ...

On October 18th, at around 2 PM - 2:30 PM, I went on a walk through the area by the reservoir and saw several different things. I went with a friend, and we tried to find every type of plant (Bryophyta, Polypodiopsida, Gymnosperms, and Angiosperms). The weather was quite warm for October and I believe was around the 60s. We ended up finding a type of moss known as the Seductive Entodon Moss which is a Bryophyta. Then, we found a Hay-scented Fern which is a polypodiopsida. Then, we found ...

Both Powo and Flora of the West Indies (available from https://naturalhistory2.si.edu/botany/WestIndies/catalog.htm ) agree that there just two species of Mesechites on Hispaniola (Haiti and Dominican Republic): Mesechites angustifolius and Mesechites repens.

Both species have been included in the book "On the Apocynaceae of South America" (1878) by John Miers on pages 229 and 230 r...

Created observation fields to describe Adalia decempunctata color variations to see if they would be useful. I would prefer them to be more general and not species specificic but i'm unsure if that would be reasonable?

Please add the name of the host plant to your observation. If you don’t know the name, please also add a photo of the whole plant. This will help someone to make or confirm an ID of the powdery mildew.

So far, 58,800+ observations across 11,500+ species have been documented by 5,300+ observers. Over one-third are already research-grade, but we still need your help to identify the rest! Your contributions are vital to the success of this phase. Let’s continue advancing Asian biodiversity knowledge together.

It's not too late: if you're interested in joining the Asia Nature Challenge as an Identifier, sign up via our website.

Today is the first day of the project. At first I created it to track mussels in the James River but realized it would be good to track everything. As of this post there are 4814 observations and 637 species in the project.

A ramosissima or A verticillata are the 2 NSW species with stem branching. Only way to be sure which, is to photograph the floret/lemma:

• hairless and 1.8–2.5 mm long in ramosissima (https://inaturalist.ala.org.au/photos/344766636)
• hairy and 2.7–4 mm long in verticillata (https://inaturalist.ala.org.au...

It is essential to have a floret photo to ID Rytidosperma to species. See https://inaturalist.ala.org.au/photos/418833636. Its the size of the floret, pattern of hairs, length of awn and lateral bristles that help ID a species, so all these features need to be shown

Need a floret photo to determine whether it is A barbata or A fatua

• barbata lemmas/florets terminate in 2 bristle-like teeth 2-5 mm long. See https://inaturalist.ala.org.au/photos/337314870
• fatua lemmas/florets terminate in 2 teeth 0.3-1.5 mm long.

The set of photos to best guarantee a grass ID is
1 habitat (roadside, heath, grassland, etc)
2 whole plant
3 stem node
4 leaf sheath closeup
5 leaf blade closeup and preferably on your hand for scale - width can be very important
6 ligule closeup
7 whole flowerhead
8 spikelet closeup - preferably several photos
9 floret closeup (absolutely essential for Rytidosperma, Poa, Austrostipa, Enneapogon, etc)

To get features in focus, you are best to ...

Today, I explored Hyde Park and nearby Green Park in London for about 30 minutes, focusing on the plant life around me. The weather was clear and sunny, with a cool breeze, making it a perfect day to observe the diverse plant species in the park. During my walk, I focused on finding examples from all four main plant groups and also took note of a few animals I encountered along the way.

Bryophyta (Moss): I didn’t capture a photo of moss this time, but I noticed some moss growing ...

On days spent studying on campus, I often go for walks through Riccarton Bush, which makes for a lovely study break. Riccarton Bush is the last fragment of the forest that once cloaked the Canterbury Plains remaining within the city of Christchurch. Although relatively intact, it was grazed historically. The bush seems to have a fairly low diversity of mosses. Why this is, I am not sure, but possible hypotheses include the local climate or historic grazing. Of the mosses that are present...

On this nature walk, I traveled again to Hammond Pond Reservation. I began my walk around 5:15pm under sunny and somewhat warm conditions. The first organism I identified was a Ciliate Hoarmoss, a nonvascular moss, growing on a rock wall. Next, I came across a Great Rhododendron plant which, although an angiosperm, had not yet flowered. I also came across a Common Yew bushel that was only about 5 feet in height. That being said, I learned that some Common Yew trees can grow up to 60 feet...

On Monday October 21st, I had a lovely walk around the Chestnut Hill Reservoir on a gorgeous fall afternoon for about 30 minutes. It was warmer than it had been over the past week, so the weather was a welcomed change. The sun was still shining and there was a nice little breeze that felt just right. For the first time, I walked by myself on one of these nature walks, and it was really nice to take my time. The trees were very colorful with bright reds, yellows, and oranges, and the rese...

For my nature walk this week, I returned to the walking trail to the right of the Margot Connell Recreation Center, as I remembered that this location contained a high plant diversity for such a small location. This observation turned out to be accurate as I found examples of all four types of plants (Bryophyta, polypodiopsida, angiosperms, and gymnosperms). However, what was surprising was the amount of angiosperms I found, with the most prominent one being the Lesser Burdocks, which br...
