Plants and Animals
While our project collects data about all kingdoms of life, we recognize that when most people talk about biodiversity, they mean plants and animals. Here are the plants (Streptophyta) and animals (Metazoa) that we found at Hahamongna and Maywood.
We’ve broken up the data into species unique to each area and species found in both areas.
- Locations:
- Hahamongna
- Maywood Park
- Hahamongna & Maywood Park
