SUMMARY:Plant Gall Field Recorder Day
DESCRIPTION:A plant gall is an abnormal growth on plant tissues caused by organisms like insects\, mites\, fungi\, bacteria\, nematodes\, or viruses. These growths typically form on leaves\, stems\, roots\, or flowers as a plant’s response to irritation or chemical signals from the invading organism. Galls provide food and shelter for the organism inside. While they may look unusual\, most galls are not harmful to the overall health of the plant. \nJoin like-minded people with an interest in recording wildlife observations for a day identifying and recording plant galls in an informal environment. Naturalists of all levels (from beginner to expert) will be able to share their experiences with peers and help one another improve their knowledge and build confidence in biological recording\, all under the guidance of gall expert Tommy Root. \n\n\n\n\nWhat will the day involve?\n\nPractical experience of finding and identifying plant galls in the field.\nAccess to a knowledgeable plant gall specialist with the opportunity to discuss identification questions.\nA chance to meet fellow like-minded people from a range of different disciplines.\n\n\nWhat do I need to know in advance?\n\nThis event is aimed at adults only.\nAttendance is free\, but booking is essential as spaces are limited.\nRecorders of all abilities are welcome.\nIdentification will take place in the field whenever possible\, but some specimens may need to be collected to be observed in more detail and identified at a later date.\nWe’ll be outside for the whole day so please bring suitable clothing for the weather\, as well as your lunch and any snacks you will require with you on the day.\n\n\n\n\n\nRecording London’s Wildlife\nAll records collected will be added to the LNHS iRecord activity in order to share our findings with the site managers\, Greenspace Information for Greater London (GiGL)\, London Natural History Society (LNHS) and relevant national recording schemes and societies. \n\n\n\n\nThis event is being run as a collaboration between the Biological Recording Company and Lesnes Abbey Woods as part of the Lesnes 500 project funded by the National Lottery Heritage Fund.
