Calystegia soldanella, Sea Bindweed is a British native species and its seed can be found washed-up on the strandline. It's seed is included here to compare with other non-native species of the convolvulaceae that have drifted here from tropical regions.

The seed here was obtained from Plant World Seeds, Newton, Abbot, Devon. Images taken of the seed 19.03.16.

The main objective of this website is in furthering environmental awareness and education through the medium of photography. To increase awareness and access to the wildlife of the region and help

people find and identify it. Sometimes the difference between species is obvious but many species can only be determined by observing microscopic characteristics that are specific to any one species.
