A oil beetle feeds on a flower close to the coastal path during the first ever nationwide survey to map the location of the threatened and creatures on March 24 near Plymouth, England. Often found on the coast, and particularly in the south west of England, the number of oil beetle species found in the UK has halved in the last 100 years and the survey will help establish the whereabouts of the remaining four species and boost efforts to secure their future. The survey is being launched today by Buglife: The Invertebrate Trust and the National Trust in partnership with Natural England and Oxford University Museum of Natural History.

A woman reacts as she looks at the flowers laid in memory of the victims of the March 29, 2010 terrorist bomb blast at the site of the attack in the Lubyanka metro station in Moscow. Russia this March marked one year since the metro bombings, when 40 people were killed and dozens wounded by two female suicide bombers during the morning rush hour.

Flowers are seen at the site of the Triangle Shirtwaist Factory fire in New York City March 25. The ceremony marked the 100 year anniversary of the fire which killed 146 immigrant workers, most of them young women. Workers were locked into the factory during their shifts, preventing escape. New Yorkers watched in horror from below as workers leapt to their deaths from the windows above. Public outcry over the tragedy led to nationwide debate on workers rights and safety regulations and helped pave the way for strong workers unions. (Eric Thayer/Getty Images)

Flowers are tied to a stone momument on a bridge in the quake and tsunami-devastated Yuriage district of Natori, Miyagi prefecture, on March 25. Two weeks after a giant quake struck and sent a massive tsunami crashing into the Pacific coast, the death toll from Japan's worst post-war disaster topped 10,000 and there was little hope for 17,500 others still missing. At least 600 of the dead hail from the Yuriage district of Natori. (Yasuyoshi Chiba/AFP/Getty Images)
