Today on #Metamorphosis I’m discussing the mouthparts of moths - how Darwin’s love of Orchids led him to predict the existence of this moth many moons before it was actually discovered...#moths. Tune in at 1:45pm @BBCRadio4 (mouthparts @sueperkins 👍)

China has the richest bumblebee diversity in the world, here is just a small portion of our 2020 collections. In contrast to their stunning coloration, their biology and threat status have yet to be studied.

The connection between flowers and pollinators is a fascinating story. Starting with insects it now includes birds and bats. it is all about coevolution.
