dc.description.abstractResearch findings from students enrolled in the fall 2022 Zoology 435 – Entomology - course at the University of Calgary. Students enrolled in this course conducted a biodiversity survey of insects throughout The City of Calgary. Insects were physically collected where permits and permissions were available in addition to digital observations from various localities using the iNaturalist platform from early May to mid-October, with most observations and collections occurring in September. In 2022, students observed 3045 insects in The City of Calgary on iNaturalist (4408 in the project overall) and collected 1241 physical specimens in The City of Calgary (1447 specimens overall). 854 total insect specimens were donated to the University of Calgary Teaching Collection, 666 of which were from The City of Calgary. Insects were observed and collected from 19 of the 25 parks in The City of Calgary where permits were obtained, with the most insects observed from Nose Hill Park (246), followed by Bowmont Park & Dale Hodges Park (82), Inglewood Bird Sanctuary (77), Prince’s Island (71), South Glenmore Park (66), Weaselhead Flats (57), Douglasglen Park (40), and Pearce Estate (38). Our report focuses on iNaturalist observations and donated physical specimens collected in The City of Calgary.en_US
