During this walk, we’ll be exploring the diverse range of insects that call our campus home. Naturally, we’ll be looking at the striking butterflies, bees and even flies that can be seen perched on flowers, but also at the beetles and bugs that can be spotted crawling in the bushes and on the ground. Our guide, Lars Willighagen, will show us which species of insects can be found on campus and how these insects relate to their environment. Come along and sign up for this walk!

This walk is part of the Biodiversity Challenge. From 30 April to 2 July, Radboud University is taking part in the Bioblitz: a nationwide challenge in which we work together to record as many different wild plant and animal species as possible.
Lars Willighagen is a PhD student and works in the Ecology Department at RIBES. He researches invasive alien species and spends much of his free time outdoors looking for insects.
