mecyno rr hina ugandensis exceptional male in size ( 87mm . . ) , colour ( blue pronotum ! ) and quality . from congo . thanos for me its mecynorrhina as well . . .
mecynorrhina has been stated as incorrect spelling of mecynorhina by holm & marais ( 1992 : 49 ) . it is confirmed in the last book on the genus ( de palma & frantz , 2010 ) . ugandensis / torquata / oberthueri are put actually ( de palma & frantz , 2010 ) in the ( sub ) genus mecynorrhinella . mecynorhina being reserved for polyphemus . savagei / kraatzi being put in the ( sub ) genus chelorrhinella . subgenus or genus level is not of so great importance , as the these levels are purely subjective .
' subgenus or genus level is not of so great importance , as the these levels are purely subjective ' - i agree and thus it ' s of course not wrong to tell for example : ' mecynorhina torquata ' , instead of the newly proposed ' mecynorhinella ' torquata . both are correct . so , i got it right that the correct spelling is with one ' r ' , and also , as mecynorhina is with one , i don ' t find a reason why mecynorhinella is with 2 ' r ' . the correct spelling of both should be with one ' r ' . btw , the ' rhina ' from mecynorhina , chelorhina , etc , must come from rhino , and to show that the male ' s cephalic horn is like a rhino ' s horn .
hi all - i see that there is a bit of confusion on the rules for the correct spelling of scientific names . the correct spelling , both for generic and specific names , is that of the original author who created the name . mecynorhina was created by hope ( 1837 ) , with one
r
. so , it is always and only mecynorhina . mecynorrhinella was created by marais and holm ( 1992 ) with two
r
, so it must be with two
r
. the original spelling must be observed . names ending in
rhina
were arbitrarily created with one or two
r
( there is no rule when you create a name ) . also , scientific names are always italic , and specific names should not start with capital letter . . . the correct name is : mecynorhina torquata torquata . have a nice day ! michele dp lausanne
. . . so actually it is with two rr ' s then , one r being reserved for polyphemus etc ? . . .
mecynorhina as genus covers all the subgenera cited ( plus others ) . if you want to use it , you must use mecynorhina otherwise you can choose to use mecynorrhinella ( for torquata ) . about the respect of a spelling , it is like to respect any kind of word or names . of course it will not penalize a commercial activity and everybody will understand what you speaking about if you use the bad spelling contrary to scientific pov where you must use the correct spelling

i heard of laying it in an acetone bath . . . ? ! ? thank you in advance
pure acetone is always good . submerge the whole specimen for few hours , it works for lepidoptera , should work for beetles also .
it takes a lot longer than a few hours gor beetles . i find relaxing prior to acetone bath helps to loosen up grease . leave in acetone from a few days to a few weeks .

s ' il n ' y pas de solution c ' est qu ' il n ' y a pas de problème ! akuna matata . . . .
oh , you ' re even more immature ( and 45 years old ? how you manage it ? ) than i had imagined . obviously i was meaning ' lack ' but i ' m greek , not english . but ' luck ' would fit also there , as your ' entomological knowledge ' seem to be more by luck . have you ever collected a single beetle at its natural habitat by yourself ? i have collected tons of leps , coleos here by myself , since my age of 5 , have learned many interesting things from my observations on their biology , behaviour etc , and know well the personal risks and difficulties of field collecting . the fact that you have obtained tons of ready tropical beetles from poor africans , which you get for low to very low prices and you re - sell them on ebay earning good money , doesn ' t mean that you ' re knowledgeable ( at least in my eyes ) or that you should be so proud only cause of the amount of beetles you receive . ( here , this is my answer to another post of ' stringer1 ' , which he deleted , too . he was commenting negatively the fact that i wrote ' luck ' , while i was meaning ' lack ' , and also he wrote that he has got much more beetles than the olives are here in greece . . . what a level of his , wow ) .
zdenol123 yes i was knowing it wrongly , too , in the past . but since then i have studied much more this ( as well as other ) groups and have known correctly many things . stringer1 has almost double my years , has received much more tropical cetoniinae goliathini than me ( as he said above but he deleted his posts ) and seems that this group is his main area , but still spells their scientific names incorrectly , while also wrote above ( before deleting his posts ) that my specimen has a broken spine on the front left tibia , while this is not correct , and shows that after so many years of collecting this group , he still ignores the spines there are not totally symmetrical ( and even not of the same number oftenly ) between the 2 tibias . but anyway , i see there is no point to continue here , as stringer1 deleted all his posts under this thread that he started . . i can ' t understand why . .
so actually it is with two rr ' s then , one r being reserved for polyphemus etc ? i can ' t see the problem slightly spelling the name wrong when selling to dealers that know that this is just a minor mistake , please thanos , you really are nit picking now . there really is no need now . and if you look very closely at your specimen , one of the spines does have the tip broken off , therefore not a1 + . very nice , but not a1 +
mr . thanos you are calling into question mr . stringfellows integrity , i ' ve been buying insects from him since he started out i ' ve had nothing but fantastic insects at fantastic prices and his service is second to none , he even sends the package for free to uk customers , do you send to your greek customers for free , so please grow up and shut up , one r two r who cares , if you know the answer then good for you but your coming off sounding like a child in a play ground i ' ve had some of the most beautiful insects from mr stringfellow as for you i remember buying a macrodontia castroi from you , a1 in the auction photo , but when it arrived it was totally smashed up , every leg , tarsus and antenna were broken off and all i got from you was it must have gotten damaged in the post , and i noticed from your feedback that a number of people got the same , no returns , so please when you bring someone else ' s integrity down remember yours can come down with it .
i choose to use the correct scientific spelling in my commercial activity , too .
wow . . seriously i will say yes to your invitation : i cannot thank you all enough for the support . i will contact you today regards peter
stringer1 , you had asked me that you ' d like to see some pictures of my collection . when i asked you to send me some of your collection , you told me that you had a nice goliathini and dynastinae collection , but you have already sold all out . this is of course your case , not my work , and i don ' t blame you of course for this . just it is in contrast with what you said above that you love beetles and they are so addictive .
as you earn so much money each week , you must be a rich man . i ' m not at all . and every specimen in my collection i have collected myself ( oftenly with a lot of difficulties ) or bought very hardly , as i earn much fewer money than you from my work , although finished the agricultural university , and each time i see a specimen i like to obtain ( oftenly not cheap ) don ' t have the money to buy it , or must sell many of my self - collected specimens to get it , and you know how difficult is to sell ( and how low prices get ) at the moment most european species - even rare ones - in contrast with the impressive , more wanted tropical ones . i don ' t have the money and contacts to africa or s . america to buy large stocks of such insects at good prices from local dealers , and to have a good benefit by selling some on ebay at much higher prices , like others do . every specimen has been obtained hardly by me , and that expensive p . giraffa i bought from you , i bought it very difficultly , selling some of the specimens that i collected in nature with my sweat . . , and so i liked to be satisfied and happy , with having it in a1 as i bought it . . , as i love insects . that ' s all . and that is why i ' m always accurate and sincere with the quality of the specimens i sell . cause , in addition to the ethical part , i absolutely feel the other collectors and their love for insects and the happiness they get when they receive a favorite species in the quality they bought . .
exoticpets , then , what to say other than i ' m so unlucky that i was the only one who received repaired / rotten specimens ( all the 3 times i bought from him ) while bought a1 , which he didn ' t sell like this in his knowledge , he checked them well and thought they ' re a1 , and the repairs were made by his dealer . . . . but this is strange , at least for me . .
thanos you are not the only one that has purchased damaged insects from me my friend , and i dought that you will be the last to be unhappy at something wrong with a specimen i sell . all i am saying is that you pushed the boundries a little too far in the insect trading segment of the forum . you should not have posted this on an insect forum site . our deal was done on ebay not here . i appologise for stateing how much money i make , it ' s morally wrong , i am one of the fortunate ones so i appologise . i understand that in these days of hardship and goverments filling their pockets , we do have to go out of our way to find extra cash to enjoy the pleasures in life . i was just really saddened that you set out to try and ruin me on the tradeing segment of this website . i have to go home after work and photograph , name , list , re - paper then pack all the insects i sell on ebay and that takes much time also . after what you did i thought to myself
why do i bother to do this
thanos - how many ebay accounts do you have ? you seem to delete them when someone leaves you bad feed back . . just for for the record ive checked mr stringfellow on ebay and there tons of people happy with what they bought off him . . he seems to have a lot more feed back than you too . . well thats something you would expect for someone thats fair with his dealings and trust worthy people always follow the best . . theres only 1 person that as had a run in with him and thats you !
' thanos - how many ebay accounts do you have ? you seem to delete them when someone leaves you bad feed back . . ' - no , sorry you are wrong . i ' ve ever had only one account on ebay , with 0 revised feedback . . here i am : urltoken clark , i do not advertise myself . paul , thanks for this post .

flower chafers are a group of scarab beetles , comprising the subfamily cetoniinae . many species are diurnal and visit flowers for pollen and nectar , or to browse on the petals . some species also feed on fruit . the group is also called fruit and flower chafers , flower beetles and flower scarabs . there are around 4 , 000 species , many of them still undescribed .
by morphological characters , the adults can be separated from the other scarabs by the combination of the following characters : epipleuron easily recognizable , border lateral of elytra sinuate and antennal insertion visible from above . twelve tribes are presently recognized : cetoniini , cremastocheilini , diplognathini , goliathini , gymnetini , phaedimini , schizorhinini , stenotarsiini , taenioderini , trichiini , valgini , and xiphoscelidini . [ 1 ] the tribe gymnetini is the biggest of the american tribes , and goliathini contains the largest species , and is mainly found in the rainforest regions of africa .
many species in the tribe cremastocheilini are known to be predaceous , feeding on hymenopteran larvae or soft - bodied nymphs of auchenorrhyncha . spilophorus spp . have been noted feeding on the nesting material and excrement of south african passerine birds , [ 2 ] while spilophorus maculatus has been recorded feeding on oxyrhachis sp . nymphs [ 3 ] and hoplostomus fuligineus is known to feed on the brood of honey bees in south africa and the pupae of the wasp belonogaster petiolata . campsiura javanica feeds on the larvae of ropalidia montana in southern india . [ 4 ] cremastocheilus stathamae feeds on ants of the genus myrmecocystus . [ 5 ]

welcome here victor ! it is indeed a pleasure to see your fantastic parnassius collection . if you have time , it would be great to read about your collecting expeditions in transalai and pamir .
many thanks , wollastoni . as for my parnassius collection , i still have many things to work on ( i mean , too many desired ssp . s and sp . s are still missing ) , and as for my expedition memoirs , you are right that it is going to take time and secondly , i suspect some of the
local authorities
in parnassius would not at all be happy to read or even see them , to say nothing about some other comparatively well - known ( in the parnassius world ) personalities , which i ' d simply have to tell certain extremely specific facts about , for once i start speaking , i always tell the truth . . . ditto .
welcome victor , i too would love to see photos of more of your parnassius , and it would be great if you could include the label in the photo , or type the locality name in the post , so we can all understand where the specimen came from . it is good to discuss things openly and honestly in a friendly way here on icf even if we have different points of view on certain aspects of classification for example . similarly if your opinions are different to those of well known russian ' authorities ' then i am sure we would all appreciate hearing how they differ and especially why your opinion is different . it all helps us learn more about the subject , which is why we are on the forum . at the same time it educated readers about alternatives , and they can then make their own minds up as to which point of view they agree with . hopefully some of them will also present their own thoughts on any topic at the same time . adam .
thanks , adam , i ' ll gladly post some more photos of my parnassius and give the data , although saying
local authorities
i did not mean anybody from russia in that particular context . victor p . s . i ' ve just inserted the data in my previous posts , so please , check it out .
michael , i am glad to see you here ! it would be a pleasure to see some pictures of your orthoptera and mecynorrhina collection . as you are a donator of this website , i am also glad to better know you via the forum . victor , i agree with adam , as long as the icf rules are respected , no entomological debates should be avoided here . feel free to open pandora ' s box !
i ' ll gladly post some more photos of my parnassius and give the data , although saying
local authorities
i did not mean anybody from russia in that particular context .
p . s . i ' ve just inserted the data in my previous posts , so please , check it out .
ah , i thought you meant russians by
local
. i know that quite a few people disagree with some of the classifications in russian books and papers .
welcome , adam , hope that ' ll be of use to somebody . and concerning
local authorities
, in my case that means
icf authorities
. . . ( please , see an earlier post in another thread . ) as for some people disagreeing with some latest russian papers and publications , well , some of the former are also russian ( me , for instance ) . . . the ill - natured combination of commerce and
science
does deliver sick products , you probably know .
welcome francisento to the forum . it would indeed be a pleasure to see some photo ' s of your orthoptera holdings . i ' ve always had a passing interest in both the acrididae and tettigoniidae . especially , the rainbow colored ones and the crazy cryptic exotic ones . but , i don ' t really have any per say as very few are offered on the american market . now , if i had access to some of those wonderful european fairs than i ' m certain that i ' d have at least 4 or 5 drawers of that stuff . it ' s cool stuff . by the way , your avatar is pretty awesome . is it yours ?
thanks for your welcome messages - ok i will prepare pictures of some of my orthoptera collection . the grasshopper shown in my avatar is titanacris gloriosa ( hebard , 1924 ) from costa rica , not yet in my collection , but i wish to have it one day . . .
welcome troidescriton ! i guess many of us have similar stories from our youth . sad to hear that nottingham is a butterfly desert nowadays . i remember going for an interview at the zoology department of nottingham university in 1977 , and it was a very green town then . the department was very interesting , and the professor was breeding ornithoptera priamus for his experiments . i ended up at imperial college , london , next to the bmnh and have been out here in thailand since 1981 . good luck , and enjoy the forum . adam .

now all the greenery is being shoveled away for the creation of more and more pubs due to nottingham ' s serious alcohol problems .
and all those pubs close down anyways after like 5 or more months due to lack of business .

sometimes taxonomists create new names for groups that already have a name . they may do this because they are unaware of the original name , or they may think the organism before them belongs to a different group when in fact it does not . if two or more names are found to apply to the same group , they are considered synonyms . in most cases , the first name takes priority and is considered to be the valid or accepted name . however , there can be exceptions , and it ' s not always easy to determine which of a series of synonyms should be considered valid or accepted . here we list the synonyms provided to eol by our classification partners . we also include other versions of the name that most likely refer to the same group , for example , misspellings in the literature or different variations of the authorship associated with the name .
eol content is automatically assembled from many different content providers . as a result , from time to time you may find pages on eol that are confusing .

the rarest species was a very long time the mecynorrhina oberthuri , until jean - pierre lequeux finds it in some forests of tanzania where it is very common . this species is now reared by many amateurs .
mecynorrhina ( sometimes with only one
r
) are beetles from the subfamily cetoniinae , tribe goliathini . the genus was created by hope , in 1837 .
according to the last work of de palma & frantz , the type species of the genus is scarabaeus polyphemus ( fabricius , 1781 ) . the genus is spread throughout the tropical african region . is an inhabitant of dense tropical forest , and like other members of the cetoniinae scarab group , they can frequently be seen feeding at sap flows on wounded trees . the larvae reside in the compost which forms inside descomposing logs . the coloration and patterning of the thoracic shield or
pronotum
is somewhat similar to the related genus goliathus .
following de palma & frantz ( l . c . ) , the genus is now divided in five subgenus :
i already did had some beetles of the mecynorrhina genus ( 2 species ) for quite a good time and they were very nice to observe , from egg to adult .
yeah , they are very beautiful , must be very nice to have them as pet . the only thing is that they live only some months as an adult .
by morphological characters , the adults can be separated from the other scarabs by the combination of the following characters : epipleuron easily recognizable , border lateral of elytra sinuate and antennal insertion visible from above . twelve tribes are presently recognized : cetoniini , cremastocheilini , diplognathini , goliathini , gymnetini , phaedimini , schizorhinini , stenotarsiini , taenioderini , trichiini , valgini , and xiphoscelidini . [ 1 ] the tribe gymnetini is the biggest of the american tribes , and goliathini contains the largest species , and is mainly found in the rainforest regions of africa .

i guess i have to say that my favorite cetoniids are these guys . they vary so much for one species , are large , and have the most unique front legs of all . hope i don ' t bore anyone , but i have chosen 9 of my many just to share the variations . even the females ( which i did not include pics of are highly variable )
just one more for now . . . . the one that is purplish / reddish / bluish with two reddish spots on the pronotum
nice variation of colours , it ' s a shame the blue and the black never gets around the 80mm .
you ' re right , the blue one is smaller - - - - in the 70s . the black one , though , is in the 80s . . . probably 84ish . i ' ll have to check when i get home from work . i do know he is a larger one : )
here ' s a nice one i used to have , nice variations of white markings on the elytra . i have to agree , one of the best species in coleoptera

the museum is open daily from 10 am to 5 : 45 pm except on thanksgiving and christmas .
the science computer cluster facility is a major resource used to advance and support our research and educational initiatives . the science clusters are used by museum research scientists , postdoctoral fellows , graduate and undergraduate students whose work relies heavily on high - end capability computing in areas of biology , genomics , astrophysics , and anthropology .
amnh scientists are at the forefront of developing and utilizing cutting - edge approaches in computing paradigms to address problems of broad application in the biological and physical sciences . for instance , researchers in invertebrate zoology have developed and implemented phylogenetic algorithms that are used by scientists around the world . while those in astrophysics , in collaborations with scientists world - wide , use high - resolution numerical simulation techniques to bring life to the hayden planetarium space shows .
further , as part of the core mission of the museum , to educate , train and disseminate information , the clusters are leveraged to promote the significance of high - performance computing within today ' s society for science and engineering through our educational programs .
the richard gilder graduate school embraces graduate training , post - doctoral fellowships , and undergraduate training programs at the museum , through both independent activities and partnerships with universities .
just when your poor citrus tree thought it would be safe to put on some new growth , finally mustering up the energy to grow again after a long and productive fruiting season , this dreaded pest arrives with its stinky , squirty spray , sucking all the vigour from the new spring shoots .
yes , its stink bug time again . but this year we say enough . this year it’s time to put our heads together , find the best weapon and ward them off . this year we mean business !
symptoms : these prolific pests will damage citrus trees , often causing fruit to drop . bronze orange bugs will suck the sap from the tree , flowers and fruit will subsequently fall and stems can turn discoloured and die .
bronze orange bugs are out in force during warmer months . this pest appears first in late winter as a light green nymph , making it hard to spot . as bronze orange bugs develop they change colour into the more familiar orange to bronze . some bird species will consume these pests but often not enough to control and prevent damage to plants . assassin bugs will also predate bronze orange bugs , yet still they seem to endure .
bronze orange bug eggs . you can see the bugs inside . these bugs will reproduce rapidly , so one or two could quickly turn into an infestation . photo - emily shepton
the nymphal bugs appear green , then change to orange with a brown spot in the middle of their backs . photo - andy burton
solution : it is best to start your pest management program in early spring while bugs are young . spray products such as eco - oil fortnightly to provide an organic defense . apply good coverage to leaves including their undersides .

very grateful for this advice - these bugs start to make me feel it ' s not worth trying to grow my citrus trees . could u tell me if the bugs eat the flowers , and therefore reduce future fruit crop ? heather
i live in brisbane north and i have a ' lots a ' lemons ' lemon , which i am growing in a pot ( almost 2 years ) . i had about a dozen lemons last season but the skins looked strange and you couldn ' t use them for zesting , the fruit was otherwise very juicy and i thought plentiful for the size of the plant ( 70 - 80cms tall ) . i try and keep pests at bay and fertilise regularly and mulch the top of the pot , it also gets full sun . many thanks for your help , helen
hi , thank you for this article . yates web page says confider is not suitable for fruit bearing citrus . which is correct ? i would love to use confider as my 12 citrus trees are just getting too much to look after .
hi that was a great story on how to get rid of the pesky stink bugs . can you give me advice on a gazebo that i can buy that i can grow roses in . so it lets the sun in but has walls to stop the wallabies . i like the wallabies but they eat the flowers . im in queensland .
stay in touch we ' ll keep you posted and promise not to bombard you .
any time from spring to autumn is suitable for taking daphne cuttings . take a cutting of approximately 10cm length , including a node ( a swollen section of stem where leaves , stems , roots originate ) . dip this into rooting hormone gel or powder and place into propagation mix deep enough so that it stands by itself . a plastic cover over the pot will help retain humidity . place in a protected position out of direct sunlight . keep moist and expect roots in a couple of months .
i planted potatoes in layers of manure and straw in early july and would like to know when they will be ready to harvest .
you should be ready to harvest your first batch in february . simply use your hands to feel through the light mix you have used and pull up as many potatoes as you need for dinner . you can keep on harvesting as you need the potatoes until you run out , or until the start of next winter .

: baby bugs ( nymphs ) are initially bright green ( as are the eggs from which they hatch ) , before turning orange - red with a black dot on their back . an adult is bronzy - black with a broad thick body and a triangular back plate . its head is small in relation to the rest of its body and it has orange antennae . its leg joints are orange .
size : eggs are about 2 . 5 mm in diameter and adults are about 2 . 5 cm long .
breeding : after mating , females lay eggs on the underside of host leaves , and the bright green eggs hatch into baby bugs ( nymphs ) about one week later .
climate change could mean that the distribution of the bug’s food plant changes , which in turn could cause a change in the distribution of bugs . also , warmer conditions as a result of climate change could result in the life cycle of bugs starting earlier and becoming prolonged . ( ian
the map below displays the accumulated observations of these species as reported by climatewatch observers , together with the layer showing how the range of the species might change between now and 2085 , with orange areas indicating where the species might disappear , and green areas where the species range might expand .
when disturbed , the bug squirts a foul - smelling fluid that can stain and burn human skin and eyes . this is used for
it is a pest in some commercial citrus orchards as sucking sap from the plants causes the stalks and young shoots to wilt and fall off . its secretions also burn the leaves .

the bug is a sap sucker . if approached too closely it can fire an irritant spray about 2 feet ( 600mm ) and reputably is capable of aiming for the eyes . extremely difficult to kill . usual organics failed to affect it over three attempts . finally succeeded with soap and water heavily laced with pyrethrum . two lots of spray . surprisingly although a pest of citrus it did not touch an orange within a metre or lemons and mandarins within 50 metres .

just when your poor citrus tree thought it would be safe to put on some new growth , finally mustering up the energy to grow again after a productive fruiting season , this dreaded pest arrives with its stinky , squirty spray , sucking all the vigour from the new spring shoots . the bronze orange bug is also known as a stink bug .
these prolific pests will damage citrus trees , often causing fruit to drop . bronze orange bugs will suck the sap from the tree , flowers and fruit will subsequently fall and stems can turn discoloured and die .
bronze orange bugs are out in force during warmer months . this pest appears first in late winter as a light green nymph , making it hard to spot . as bronze orange bugs develop they gradually darkening as they get older , changing colour into the more familiar orange to bronze . some bird species will consume these pests but often not enough to control and prevent damage to plants .
when mature , the bronze orange bug is orange - brown or black and approximately 25mm long . the bronze orange bug mainly attacks citrus trees . mature bugs are clearly visible feeding on young shoots , fruit and flowers . when disturbed the bugs orientate themselves so they can squirt an evil smelling chemical in their attackers direction . this chemical not only smells awful , it stains the skin and can cause a burning sensation if squirted in the eye .
the bugs suck the sap from young shoots , fruit and flowers in summer . this causes wilting of young shoots and flower stalks which generally turn black and shrivel .
make sure you wear gloves , long sleeves , protective glasses and a hat or other protective clothing . bronze orange bugs emit a foul - smelling , citric - acid - rich liquid when disturbed and this can be very dangerous , particularly if sprayed in the eyes .

we have been staying with family while in sydney , children and dogs running through the house leaving behind trails of shrieking delight , and of course the tears that sometimes dovetail such joy .
in 2010 . we were heading there to host a working bee and workshop , and this was to be our second sydney harbour crossing on bikes and we knew what to expect .
we were pretty excited to see the garden again , although some more than others as we rode across the city ' s famed bridge .
we had a plan of what we wanted to achieve at the working bee , first making sure that all cutting tools were clean , as it is very easy to pass disease between plants via secateurs .
this was to be a day of turning the forest ' s top - heavy living biomass into forest floor water conserving and food producing mulch . thinning a food forest is crucial to enable air and sun flow . if a food forest is too shaded it won ' t produce as well . while woody practiced his cutting technique ,
a number of us got stuck in . lani used a hatchet to break down larger branches ,
meg was behind the camera , documenting our little group ' s work to mark and celebrate the garden ' s fourth year . zeph helped amanda collect stink bugs (
) off the citrus . they collected a hundred or more , wearing dark glasses to protect their eyes from the toxic spray the bugs can emit . it was jeremy ' s idea to put these handsome pests into hot soapy water to kill them .
amanda has been with the garden since its inception and her care and commitment has been absolutely instrumental to its success .
were keen to show local residents the bush foods , culinary herbs , edible flowers and fruit setting in the garden , as well as reinstate the north border where annual vegetables grow beautifully in sunny and semi - shaded positions . we were also keen to point out that even though this garden is on church grounds , it is a community garden and you don ' t have to be part of the church , or religious for that matter , to garden and enjoy the fruits of the
in order to attract pollinators and beneficial predators to the garden we have planted many different species , mimicking a healthy forest ecology . the diversity of food is also there to attract human organisms , but we recognise food knowledges have been in decline for the past two generations and many people walk past the garden not knowing what is actually going on there . a few years ago , in order to address this problem , the mca and
mocked up a design for a sign to be installed at the garden to help inform the public about this permanent public work .
with a key noting over 40 species of edible plants . it ' s probably a good thing this particular design never went ahead as a number of the species have been replaced and new plants planted . such is the nature of an ecology . however , one thing that we feel is still missing from this 24 hr access community garden is a notice or sign to welcome participation . the garden also requires skilled permaculturalists and other such gardeners who know ' chop and drop ' food forestry techniques .
now it requires local performers to play a part ; to play in its chop and drop theatre .
yes , this is just a small garden , but nonetheless it is a response to generating a greener future . one of these gardens in every park , nook , ' nature strip ' and common would go a long way to improving our health and the health of the world ' s environments .
even if these spaces only contributed 5 % of our food , it would be 5 % less damage we would be committing in the world . and by being involved in such processes we would be teaching our young people to be generative and not extractive , to be creators not destroyers , which would have significant reverberations for us all .
imagine a world where everyone had or had access to a food forest like this ! what a great thing to see and so inspiring as we begin to cobble together our own food forest here .
ah , yes rlh , a world where war was not given any status and our children were nourished with loved plant life not greed , pesticides and frankenfood . that ' s what we ' re working towards .
i used to live just down the road from here , back when the garden was started . i had no idea it wasn ' t part of the church , and was always too scared to take anything from the garden ( i walked past multiple times everyday ) . i thought about donating my balcony worm farm compost , but again , didn ' t know who to contact ! how amazing though . i came across your blog through milkwood permaculture , and have read every post with awe . wonderful stuff . i wish i had the know how and initiative to create a food garden on public space near our current home !
hello kim , thank you for your kind words . we are currently working on getting a sign made up that will encourage people to participate at the food forest . you definitely have the know - how and initiative to create a community garden in your local area . like everything worthwhile it comes about by a step by small step process , which accumulates into something wonderful over time . we all have this ability , esp those who communicate well with others , which you obviously do . you just need to gather people around you who wish to be involved . we can offer advice from afar , but there ' ll be others near you who will find strength in your strength and tenacity , and in working together you ' ll find you can do anything you want .
hi aaf , i came back to this post to see if there was any info on designing a food forest . i ' m looking into council approval to get one into my local little park - mostly to see if there is any financial assistance they will provide . i have no problem with guerilla gardening but i don ' t really have the spare cash to spend on plants that i can ' t propagate or grow from seed . thank you for your affirmations above , i know that you are currently on the road but i will be coming to your foraging walk in tempe next weekend - yay !
hello kim , we highly recommend dave jacke ' s book , which you can find more about here : urltoken this is an awesome manual , and although it ' s american there are many design principles that relate and some species as well . look forward to seeing you on sunday . aaf xx

artist as family have conducted a number of fruitful projects in the past including ' 17 days ' ( 2009 ) , commissioned by the lock - up cultural centre in newcastle and ' food forest ' ( 2010– ) , commissioned by the museum of contemporary art in sydney .
' 17 days ' involved foraging for anthropogenic waste along the coastline and throughout the city of newcastle . day after day we carried out the same simple task of walking or bike riding to collect countless bags of rubbish . we swam , played in the sand , picnicked , rested , communed with locals , gazed ( as inlanders ) in awe at the sea and picked up other people’s discarded refuse . after 17 days we had amassed a monumental pile of industrial food and drink packaging , which we exhibited at the lock - up cultural centre as simply : the everyday detritus of hypertechnocivility as collected by a family on holiday .
' food forest ' is a public artwork that doubles as a community garden , a work that aims to foreground biodiversity and demonstrate that materially art can be generative , can be a resource unto itself , rather than just an extractor or exploiter of resources to make market desirable products . in other words art can be generative contiguous with ecological functioning . food forest is therefore a work that attempts to blur the traditional western line between art and that estranging term ‘nature’ .
follow artist as family on facebook and let us know about your own projects .

we recorded this delightful shield bug feeding on what we think was salt residue on the teak floor of our house .
