Field Notes

Description:

Epyphite plant. The flower petals had very tiny animals which I could not figure out whether they were worms, larvae or very small insects of some sort. I suspect the plant may be sweet or contain another type of attractant molecules that these animals crave.

Habitat:

National Park Arenal V.

Yes, you are right! Good suggestion, I have to look into it ;-)

Beautiful. It's probably some sort of Gesneriad, but there are a lot of them.
