César Castillo, an important participant in the NYC EcoFlora Project, father of three, husband, biologist, and educator at Queen's College, passed away unexpectedly on Wednesday, March 1st. César contributed 10,079 observations of 2,105 species in NYC. Birds were his particular interest, but he captured the diversity of life within the city through his exploration.
A map of César's observations throughout the city (blue = birds, green = plants, pink = fungi, red = insects, orange = arachnids).
