Pollinators & Pollination: An Introduction

Pollinators & Pollination: An Introduction
Jeff Ollerton
26th November 2020
Pollination of flowers by insects is a vital ecological process that ensures the reproduction of most British wild plants and many of our agricultural crops. This talk will provide an introduction to the natural history of pollinators and how they interact with the flowers that they pollinate.
The main groups of pollinators will be introduced, with guidance on how to identify them, and their ecology and behaviour will be explored. The talk will conclude with an overview of why conserving these species is so important, and what individuals can do to help ensure their diversity and abundance.
