This 2-day workshop led by Ian Cheeseborough is for anyone who would like to learn about the identification and ecology of solitary wasps. Day 1 will be based at Ness Botanical Gardens, Wirral where time will be spent in the field capturing and identifying wasps (to genus in most cases or species where possible). There will also be presentations looking at the variety of Crabronidae and Sphecidae wasps and a further session on useful identification features to help narrow down in the field. Day 2 will be at World Museum where we will be identifying specimens collected the previous day or looking at particular genera of interest from the museum collections using entomological keys and microscopes.

Adults only (18+)

Lunch is not provided but tea, coffee, water and biscuits will be available.
