26.04.2025, 2 pm: Bioblitz in the Botanical Garden
Butterfly and moth expert Karina Lucas da Silva-Brandão takes us to the Botanical Garden in Hamburg. Here we will be looking specifically for species - plants, fungi and, of course, animals - that will help us draw a better picture of the biodiversity of our Hanseatic city.
Places are limited, which is why we ask you to register briefly at: veranstaltungen.hamburg@leibniz-lib.de
Participation is free of charge. The event will be held in English only.
