Myakka River State Park
MRSP

Mapping and monitoring of the exotic weevil, Metamasius callizona, and its host plants (some of south Florida's native bromeliads) began in Myakka River State Park in January 2001.

For a summary of this research project, see the Introduction.

In April 2002 mapping and monitoring expanded to Loxahatchee National wildlife Refuge (LWNR) and is being conducted by volunteers.

In August 2002, a volunteer station was set up in Highlands Hammock State Park (HHSP).

For a summary of volunteer activity, see The Weevil Watchers.
