Défi: | Environnement | Catégorie: | Sénior | Région: | Cape Breton | Ville: | Sydney, NS | École: | Riverview High School | Sommaire: | Lady beetles were collected in disturbed and undisturbed habitats to investigate habitat preference and abundance of native and non-native lady beetles. Only 1.5% of lady beetles in these habitats were native species. Additionally, most non-native lady beetles were in undisturbed habitats, the assumed habitats of native lady beetles. This suggested that non-native lady beetles may be adversely affecting native lady beetles on Cape Breton Island. |
