WHAT IS AN ECOQUEST?
EcoQuests, part of the NYC EcoFlora Project, challenge New Yorkers to become citizen scientists and observe, study and help conserve the native plants and animals of the City, using iNaturalist, an easy-to-use mobile App.
As part of Invasive Species Awareness week, join the New York Botanical Garden in exploring the urban wilds of New York City documenting as many Ailanthus trees as possible. The Tree of Heaven is a host for the highly destructive Spotted Lantern Fly (Lycorma delicatula) a pest not yet found in New York.
