Two new species - both welcome


The last couple of days has yielded two new species for the database - Field Mushroom and Green Dock Beetle. The Field Mushroom is welcome for obvious reasons (tonight's tea) and the Green Dock Beetle is a welcome organic dock control mechanism. I have only seen the larvae rather than the adult - they are currently stripping dock leaves at a rate of knots.
