Introducing #WildWebsWednesday! An exciting new hashtag from #Wildflowerhour to celebrate the amazing biodiversity that depends on our wild flora. To take part simply tweet a pic of a wildflower with a dependent organism such as a gall, insect, rust, moss, lichen, fungi, bird🕸🐞
Isn’t this amazing!!
Here is a What's about for October in the Agromyzidae world from Barry Warrington. Comments on the usefulness of this appreciated as I can feed them back to Barry.

For #WildWebsWednesday, I was so excited yesterday to see Harebells being visited by a teeny female Gold-tailed Melitta Bee, Melitta haemorrhoidalis. Not the best pic as she zipped off quick! – at Lytham St. Annes, England

So much Burnet Rose in the grassland-scrub mosaic at Shooter's Bottom, many with characteristic galls caused by Diplolepis spinosissimae, as well as patches of bright orange rust, possibly Phragmidium rosae-pimpinellifoliae, but not confirmed. #WildWebsWednesday

Gall of the week is a fungal gall on Moschatel caused by Puccinia albescens. Photo by Kathryn Killner.
Moschatel is sometimes called 'the town hall clock', so I guess these galls are the corporations' watches!

Stellaria media is host to a few species, as are the other common Stellaria and Cerastiums. I'm fairly sure this is the fungus Septoria stellariae. #wildwebswednesday @WebsWild
