  • Bulletin BMIG 25
    Bulletin of the British Myriapod & Isopod Group Volume 25 (2011) FIELD MEETING REPORTS A REPORT ON THE BRITISH MYRIAPOD AND ISOPOD GROUP VISIT TO SWANSEA, 27-30th MARCH 2008 Ian K Morgan Y Berllan, 19 Tyrwaun, Pwll, Llanelli, Carmarthenshire SA15 4AY. The origins of this visit followed on from a discussion that I had the previous year with Mark Winder. Mark (with whom I was a Planning Ecologist with the City and County of Swansea), already had an interest in spiders and, given the potential of making good records in an area that ranged from urban habitats, brownfield sites and parks to maritime cliffs and saltmarsh, we volunteered to help organise the 2008 event. As I had (by Spring 2008) left employment with CCS, Mark arranged the logistics of the visit such as accommodation, whilst I helped with the choice of sites and the itinerary. I would like to thank Mark at this late stage for all his help and also to apologise for the lateness of this account. The participants visited some nine 10km squares in the Swansea area (vc41, Glamorgan) and in the extreme south-east of Carmarthenshire (vc44). It is my view that Swansea, including the adjacent peninsula of Gower and nearby towns, has much to offer for the recording of myriapods and woodlice, as well as other invertebrate groups. The general area is not well recorded, though Gordon Blower visited Gower on more than occasion and carried out valuable detailed studies with his students at several locations (see Blower, 1989). I also, when I was actively recording in the late 1980`s, carried out some investigation of the fauna on Swansea’s periphery at Loughor and occasionally on north Gower (Morgan, 1988).
