It's National Invasive Species Awareness Week! Help protect our ecosystems. Plant natives! If you can't, make sure what you are planting is not considered an issue in your area. Our friends over at the UF/IFAS Assessment make that easy for Floridians! assessment.ifas.ufl.edu.

We need a "unicorn"? Someone who knows German, Latin, and is familiar with insect/ weevil terminology. Anyone out there with this (very) specific skill set?

Science Twitter, help! We have a weevil specimen that needs identification. We are working w/ a weevil specialist, but the key he needs to confirm (1928) is in German with descriptions in Latin. Tried translation software, but insect terminology does not translate well...

@_Astro_Nerd_ I did. I had a great support system including advisor, mentors, family, and graduate student cohort. The department head made it a point to ensure students had a positive and supportive community on campus. I think that is key and I strive to provide that for my students.

August is the peak of Asian longhorned beetle (ALB) adult activity. USDA is declaring August as “Tree Check Month” for this invasive beetle. Report it: If you think you found a beetle or tree damage.
