NZ Beetles and their grubs

Well it had to happen, a project dedicated to New Zealand's 5,500 plus beetle fauna, most endemic and unique to this country. As a key component of ecosystems they can be found in a huge range of habitats providing reliable indicators to the state of the environment. It is hoped this project will raise their profile and enable more people to share in the beauty and rich diversity of our beetle (papapa) fauna! less ↑
