Invasive Alien Species Seiyoo-ohanamarubachi Eradication Event in Ecorin Village
Date and Time
2026/5/16
9:30-12:00 (Registration 9:15-9:30)
The Seiyoo-ohanamarubachi came to Japan for the pollination of mini tomatoes. However, some have escaped from greenhouses and become feral, potentially impacting the natural environment of Hokkaido. We will hold a seminar & hands-on activity to think about biodiversity, the invasive species problem in Hokkaido, and native bumblebee species.
