The citizen scientist survey of large Coleoptera on Lord Howe Island, August 2019
Abstract
A survey of large beetles, 1 cm or more in length, on Lord Howe Island was conducted by the Australian Museum in August 2019, with the help of citizen scientist volunteers. Twelve areas were sampled and the results are discussed. The survey was in late winter, a generally poor time for beetle activity, but 23 large species were found. The large beetle fauna of Blackburn Island is reviewed.
