Can you spot the ghost orchid here. Not an orchid but Voyria parasitica! Native to greater Caribbean areas. Gets it's food from fungus. Well spotted in pineyards by @FlashBlaise Middle Caicos #TIPAs #KewTCI
Fantastic to see the growth of the Pine Trees on Pine Cay, Turks and Caicos islands!! @TCIG_Press @KewScience and TCI national trust worked tirelessly for over a decade to save the national tree of TCI The diamond jubilee pine arboretum was planted in 2012 #KewTCI look now!
One species or two 🤔?! We are collecting specimens and DNA to try to understand the differences between Euphorbia vaginulata and Euphorbia inaguaensis. So much variation seen in the field! A job for the taxonomists back at the herbarium... @TCIG_Press #KewTCI #TIPAS @UKBCFs
We @KewScience working with @Ecolog3stDutz @BNaqqi @TCIG_Press 2nd year Turks and Caicos Islands TIPAs fieldwork trip, straight into the bush arrrggghh @UKBCFs #KewTCI
It was a fantastic 3 weeks working at @KewScience Herbarium and library with the @KewUKOTs team. The time was short but we sure got a lot done for the @UKBCFs #Darwininitiative. Can wait to see y’all in the next fieldwork season!! #Dplus114 #KewTCI
I’ve been told to see the living collections at @KewScience by @BNaqqi for weeks before I arrived here and honestly it was brilliant to see a few plants that felt like home. Thank you @KewUKOTs @HorticultureSci #KewTCI
It was a brief time in a lab but it was good to be back in one. There was a rush of nostalgia when we talked about DNA extraction procedures #Dplus114 #TCITIPAs #kewtci
#TIPAs #KewTCI fieldwork found this native species Strumpfia maritima Jacq. growing as a beautifully formed cushion plant, on South Caicos. It usually grows to 1-2m as a loosely branched shrub...nothing like this! @KewScience @TCIG_Press @UKBCFs supporting our work
#kewTCI #TIPAs target species, Euphorbia gymnonota Urb., native range Bahamas to Turks-Caicos Islands; surprisingly found a new population during fieldwork, on North Caicos, working with DECR North Caicos team @TCIG_Press @KewScience funded by @UKBCFs
@KewGIS @KewScience takes opportunity to during low wind to reimagine Middle Caicos Pineyard #kewTCI #TIPAs @TCIG_Press @UKBCFs
Middle Caicos in the Caribbean, is rich in endemic and restricted range threatened species which @TCIG_Press and @KewScience are documenting as part of @UKBCFs funded #TIPAsTCI #KewTCI work being carried out this month
Many target species documented during #KewTCI @TCIG_Press @KewScience fieldwork on East Caicos thanks to @UKBCFs funding. Returning to East this week with @Ecolog3stDutz and team, for more data on threatened species and habitats for #TCITIPAs #DPlus114 project
Impressive use of technology by @TCIG_Press DECR team, to monitor plant habitats and other biodiversity. They are capturing the real beating heart of these islands! #WorldOceanDay2023 #KewTCI
