How to use iNaturalist.nz
We have created brochures “Is it a Bee?”, and had them translated into Māori, Tongan, Fijian, and Samoan to help guide people on how to use iNaturalist.nz, and to encourage people to upload observations they might find of bees and other pollinating insects. For our research, we use the data from iNaturalist.nz to get a clearer understanding of bee species distributions throughout NZ, times of year that different species are active, and what types of floral resources they are most commonly found feeding on.

Game: Match the native butterfly or moth to its host plant
Print and cut out the squares. Paste the purple (butterfly), blue (moth) or green (plant) to the front of a foam or solid board, and paste the corresponding purple, blue, or green to the back of the board. There are 16 game pieces total – you can decide whether to play with just butterflies, just moths, or challenge yourselves with both mixed together. The pdf includes the answer key.
Game: Is it Native?
We created a series of outreach activities to challenge folks on whether the bees, birds, reptiles/amphibians, and plants they might see are native or introduced to Aotearoa | New Zealand. The game + answer keys are available in the downloadable pdf.
