Every year we sample four sites around the Wekiva River System for juvenile dragonfly called nymphs or larvae. This year we will be sampling the Wekiwa Springs Run, Big Buck Camp, Lake Prevatt, and Katie's Landing.
The Dragonfly Mercury Project engages citizen scientists such as students and teachers in the collection of juvenile dragonflies, also known as dragonfly larvae, from national parks for mercury analysis.
