This project collates photos of introduced and cryptogenic species taken by participants in SACReD's Marine Hitchhikers project in the City of Onkaparinga's coast and marine area.

The project is managed by South Australian Conservation Research Divers (SACReD), supported in 2020 by a community grant from the South Australian Coastal Protection Board.

Project partners include City of Onkaparinga council, and Marine Research Group (MRG) of the Field Naturalists of Victoria.

Later in the project period, the iNaturalist project page will be opened publicly, so that residents from City of Onkaparinga can add their own observations of introduced species over time. It is planned that this project will eventually become one means of community-based monitoring of introduced marine species in the area. menos ↑
