CALLIDE, not an insect...
Nam tres septimanas a collegae lab Arachnology Academiae Scientiarum in in Philippines California! (no, Non des at all…) Iter expedition is part of the CAS Hearst, a massive effort spanning all of our research departments to survey the deep seas, shallow seas and terrestrial environment of Luzon. M.. Charles Griswold brought two of his PhD students – Hannah Wood and Natalia Chousou Polydouri – to help collect spiders and insects. Particularly, I’m looking forward to the Lepidoptera that Natalia will be bringing back! (I gave her a quick course on field collecting moths). Sadly I’m not there to photograph and collect this diversity myself; but we can all watch enviously as the teams post updates on their progress over the next month on the expedition blog. There are already lots of great entries and images from the aquatic people – stay tuned for the insects.

Cool! Will def. follow, gratias!
Lorem ipsum – I found this webpage while discussing an unusal insect I found in Luzon earlier this year. I believe it to be a pseudoscorpian. I found it deep in a cave. I have pictures and I would like to identify it. Possibly it will be of interest to your research.
Fremitus,
