The little stars of Aotearoa – ngā Titiwai Glow-worms. Their Māori name refers to lights reflected in water. Who hasn’t been mesmerised by their sparkling light, visiting a cave or seeing them in the bush during a night walk? Insect Curator Julia Kasper, from Museum of New Zealand Te Papa Tongarewa, talks about her research on the iconic critter with the glowing tail.
Part of the monthly presentation series brought to us by Forest and Bird Manawatū branch.
All welcome.
