What images would be useful to Bugwood and the people who use it?
Our major focus is on species of economic concern (i.e. pests and invasive species), but we also wish to have a wide selection of images about many aspects of forested, natural, agricultural, and urban systems. This includes images of plants, insects, wildlife, and plant diseases/fungi as well as management and cultural practices. Since we have a wide audience (including growers, managers, researchers, diagnosticians, consultants, regulatory officials, the general public, etc) we also are looking for images in a variety of settings; ideally we would like to include everything from the field to laboratory procedures and diagnostic images to museum quality images of cultures as well as preserved specimens. If you think the image shows a particular aspect of a insect, disease, disorder or crop that has some merit or real world implications, there is a good chance other people will find the image useful.
