\n<\/a>Here’s a cool but complex ecological interaction directly involving at least three species going on in my backyard. (Olathe, KS)<\/p>\n

We’ve had a mostly cool and wet spring to date.\u00a0 The plant involved is about 0.6 m tall at this point and there is a large flower bud within these leaves.\u00a0 For this challenge, let’s start with the names of the species involved (at least to genus) followed by a description of the interactions involved.\u00a0 Turns out there is a great site on the web that has this all documented with photos and scientific papers.\u00a0 Maybe you can find that.\u00a0 Part of the reason I put this challenge here is to hopefully inspire biology teachers into thinking just what they and their students might be able to investigate with just a small butterfly garden.\u00a0 Another image:<\/p>\n
