Andreas died this week. We prepared a website about the life and the work of Andreas. It is available under https://andreaskay.org.

Ecuador is one of 17 megadiverse countries, it actually has the highest biodiversity per square kilometer of any nation, with over 1660 species of birds, some 4000 species of butterflies and thousands of colorful moths, more than 500 amphibians, as well as a unique flora with e.g. over 4300 species of orchids.

I have been documenting the diversity of life in Ecuador as an independent scientist since 2011 and sharing some 30.000 photos on my page Ecuador Megadiverso (www.flickr.com/andreaskay/albums), hoping to raise more awareness for these threatened treasures.

Dear Friends of Ecuador, I have Glioblastoma and do not have the time to carefully edit my videos anymore.
