4:00 pm - 5:30 pm
As part of the Centennial Celebration of Aton Forest, the Norfolk Hub will host the Aton Forest Science Lecture III “The Leafminers of Aton Forest” on Friday, September 18 from 4:00 to 5:30 p.m. This lecture is presented by Aton Forest Research Fellow Charley Eiseman. The event is sponsored by Aton Forest Fellowship Trust, Colebrook Conservation Commission and the Norfolk Conservation Commission. It is a free event.
Leaf-miners are the larvae of certain moths, flies and beetles that feed between the epidermal layers of leaves. These insects leave diverse, often intriguing signs (“leaf-mines”) on their host plants.
Aton Forest is an Ecosystem Field Station and Norfolk’s Natural Area Land Trust, the second largest Norfolk-based non-profit land-owner, with 2500 acres of conserved land which it studies for the benefit of natural and human communities.
