Banks Peninsula Tree Weta

Publication

DescriptionThere are two species of tree weta on Banks Peninsula. One, the Canterbury tree weta (Hemideina femorata), is also found elsewhere in Canterbury, whereas the Banks Peninsula tree weta (H. ricta) is only found on the Peninsula east of Pigeon Bay and Akaroa Harbour. The species is under threat, due to forest clearance and introduced predators. Rats mice, stoats, hedgehogs and possums are some of its more voracious enemies.Copyright OwnerLincoln UniversityPeopleMike Bowie | Tina TroupPersonMike BowieTina TroupOrganisationLincoln UniversityDate2009KeywordsBanks Peninsulaendangered specieswetaweta motelsNotesThis brochure was made possible by the Biodiversity Advice Fund (Department of Conservation).Item Reference0002275
