Get an up-close look at some specimens and explore the Gardens during a brief walk to look for UV fluorescent organisms. You don't have to travel to the tropics to see organisms that glow at night! California has organisms that are bioluminescent and produce their own light to attract mates, get rid of predators, or to help them find a new place to live. There are also plenty of organisms in California that are UV fluorescent under a black light, the biological function is a bit nebulous, but their glowing beauty is not. This talk will give a wide survey of these glowing organisms, where to find them, how to see them, and how to document them.
