I don’t often stop and smell the roses, but I always try and stop to watch the #Triggerplants.

#Stylidium squamosotuberosum just seen in action south of Margaret River – just look at the size of the pollen load on this native bee! #Pollination #FloraOfAustralia #AustralianPlants

#Introduction. Greetings from SW Australia where it’s easy to get overwhelmed by breath-taking biodiversity. I’m a plant taxonomist at #WAHerbarium, currently synthesizing >2 decades of work on the #Triggerplant family #Stylidiaceae for #FloraofAustralia, with a phylogenomic framework coming down the pike. Tooting mostly about #AustralianPlants, #Botany, #Taxonomy, #Herbaria and #Conservation
