The 4th Conference of the International Carnivorous Plant Society  (ICPS)
in Tokyo, June 21-23, 2002

Some 40 participants took the opportunity to join the Mt. Koshin excursion arranged by IPS. Mt. Koshin is known as the prime habitat for Pinguicula ramosa, an endemic butterwort species to the region. The fog-covered mountain cliff offers an ideal habitat for this rare species. The excursion participants had only a few minutes to spare after the conference to catch the waiting chartered bus for Mt. Koshin.
