Recent additions to The Pinnacle's native species site
Pages for two new categories of species have been added to the site: Algae and Slime moulds. The reserves first species of Slime Mould species was found at 2 locations earlier this year during a regular visit by the Canberra Fungi Group. These are fascinating single-cell organisms that express themselves in various macroscopic forms and worth Googling to find out more about them.
The Lichens, Mosses and Liverworts page has been updated to group the three types of species separately following a successful season which added several new Lichen and Moss species. More photos have also been added.
