Great talk by Maria O'Neill on the fantastic effort by Ballymore Eustace community groups controlling the invasive plant Himalayan balsam on the River Liffey in 2024. #kildarebioconf Kildare County Council Sch. Biol. & Env. Sc

I'm looking for examples using stream-side and instream incubators (“hatchboxes”) for releasing unfed salmonid fry to enhance harvest, supplement natural runs, or restore extirpated populations. Any leads appreciated, please repost to spread the word!

Another Chinese mitten crab found in the cheekpoint area, Waterford. This small female has 1000s of eggs typically released at the end of spring early summer. Please report any sightings and get in contact Biodiversity Ireland. This is a high impact invasive alien species. UCD Science

Another night survey completed on the invasive Alpine newt. Great help from our Environmental biology and Zoology students. Plenty moving early in the year getting ready for the breeding season.

These non native Alpine Newts occur at very high densities in bog habitats in the midlands of Ireland. Our Environmental Biology and Zoology students out surveying last night with The HSI . UCD Science Sch. Biol. & Env. Sc

It's taken five years of control to reduce the seed bank of skunk cabbage after eradication efforts started in 2021 along the River Liffey. Continued support from Kildare County Council through LBAF funding Department of Housing, Local Government & Heritage National Parks and Wildlife Service. Manual removal is tough going!
