Golden furrow bee // Halictus subauratus // Goldglänzende Furchenbiene

In Germany, three quarters of flying insects have vanished in 25 years ( www.theguardian.com/environment/2017/oct/18/warning-of-ec... ).

One third of all invertebrate species are endangered or have already gone extinct in Germany.

The loss of biodiversity on land worldwide amounts to 20 % ( IPBES (2019): Global assessment report on biodiversity and ecosystem services of the Intergovernmental Science-Policy Platform on Biodiversity and Ecosystem Services (Version 1). Zenodo. doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.5657041, page 31 ).

 

Half of the almost 600 wild bee species in Germany are rare, endangered or already extinct.
