Chewed upon:
Venturing into the clearing, I started seeming the same species we had been seeing earlier:
Drosera menziesii, D. macrantha, D. glanduligera,
and D. rosulata. Interestingly, a number of the D. rosulata rosettes
showed foliar damage from some kind of herbivore. You can see above what they looked like.
Here is another rosette that shows only a little of the damage.
(Incidentally, several days later I was in the field with Allen Lowrie, and he said this damage was caused by non-native
larval cabbage white butterflies; perhaps this is the same as the USA non-native butterfly called a cabbage white;
Artogeia rapae?)
