Interested in learning more about the goths of the insect world that come out to pollinate after dark? Join us at the UBC Farm for an event spotlighting the diverse and beautiful assemblage of nocturnal bugs that live in and around Vancouver! We will take a look at which insects are enjoying the moonlight: in our traps, through microscopes, and on a stroll around the farm. We’ll provide an intro on nocturnal insect biology, identification, how entomologists sample them, and the many exciting ways they have adapted to live in the dark. Come learn about how these creatures of the night benefit us and the ecosystems they live in.
