Ikeda, K.

An invertebrate analysis technician and independent terrestrial animal and plant researcher. Holder of a Level 2 Biological Classification Skills Certification (Animal Division). Self-taught in insects, and studied entomology and ecology at university and graduate school. Since his undergraduate days, he has understood the interconnectedness of life in living things, and has also self-studied plants, becoming interested in many terrestrial animals and plants and able to distinguish most species. As a freelance invertebrate analysis technician, he identifies soil animals, insects, spiders, etc., and has reported important distribution and ecology information from records of plants and animals obtained through many years of fieldwork in academic papers.

Currently, our website focuses on providing casual yet accurate information about the ecology of various familiar and fascinating plants and animals. We actively read English-language academic papers, so you'll find plenty of information here that you won't find anywhere else!
