Phytophagy

Last Wednesday, I walked out of the main entrance of Morrill I N375 and took a right down the stairs, through the set of doors, and walked down the hallway. After passing the bathrooms, which were on my left, I took a left at the first door after and walked down the stairs to go outsdie. Taking a right, I went down a flight of stairs and that's where I found plenty evidence of phytophagy on campus. After reaching the bottom of the stairs, I took a look to my right and found a big plant on the ground with several leaves with holes and brown streaks on it. Since these leaves were on the ground, it is safe to say that the holes were caused by plant-eating insects. There were at least 4-5 holes in most of the leaves on the plant. I took a picture of the plant from right above, on the walkway above looking down on the plant, and from the little brick wall closer to the street.
