Hey friends! I’ve got a current intern who’s interested in studying insect taxonomy, systematics, phylo in Hymenoptera. Who’s got funding and is planning on reviewing PhD/funded MS students this application cycle? I’d like to link you! Please boost. @SysEB_Entsoc @ISHstudents
Thank you @UFCitrusBugs for sending these my way! Parasitoids are the best 😍
Have you ever thought to yourself, "I wonder what 900+ snails look like?"
Excited for this collaboration with @UFCitrusBugs and @UFwatersan !
This publication is the culmination of a HUGE effort and cooperation between multiple agencies and universities over many years. Thank you everyone for your hard work! TLDR: Oobius agrili has done a great job spreading and persisting! academic.oup.com/jee/advance…

Slugs are a headache for growers following conservation agriculture practices. A new study finds that, among slugs' natural enemies, ground beetles provide the best control, and growers should consider practices that attract ground beetles to their fields. entomologytoday.org/2023/06/…
This is a short, easy publication for early career folx to list on their CVs! If you are within 5 years of your terminal degree and a current ESA member you are eligible to contribute! Please reach out to me if interested in learning more!

Is your bestie's new beau secretly an invasive emerald ash borer? Know the signs!
ALT A prompt reads: "Is it true love or invasive species?" An emerald ash borer gives two cartoon women a thumbs up. "How can I be bad! I'm so pretty!" he seems to say. One woman looks skeptical, but the other has literal hearts for eyes. She is smitten.
