At least 65% of all species on the planet are invertebrates (Buglife). There are more than 32,000 terrestrial and freshwater species in the UK alone, and many are critically endangered (Buglife). These insects play a vital role which underpins many day-to-day ecological processes. Surveying invertebrates in essential in helping to inform conservation and land management decisions that are best for wildlife.
This kit enables you to choose how to best conduct your survey depending on what you are looking for and what you want to record.
