The scheme welcomes recordings from anglers and anyone else fortunate enough to enjoy the occasional direct sighting of these fascinating members of our fauna. Recently the scheme has been led by Dr Ian Winfield, who stood down in 2024 - many thanks to Ian for his excellent work over may years. We will update this page when a new scheme organiser is able to take this on.

The Botanical Society of Britain and Ireland is for everyone who is interested in the flora of Britain and Ireland. We welcome both professional and amateur members. The society is the biggest and most active organisation devoted to the study of botany in Britain, Ireland, the Channel Isles and the Isle of Man.
