January 27th 2025 at 7pm at the Kirkwood Public Library (140 E Jefferson Ave, Kirkwood, MO 63122)
The entomology group will gather in-person for a presentation with long-time WGNSS member and entomologist, Ted MacRae.
Ted will present, “A bottle of wine and a jug of bugs: Trapping beetles in the mountains and canyons of eastern New Mexico.” The
presentation will be a travelogue based on three trips this last summer to the mountains and canyonlands of eastern New Mexico for the third
and final season of data collection of a study comparing the efficacy of different baits in “jug traps” designed to capture longhorned beetles,
flower scarabs, and click beetles. The two previous seasons were conducted across southern Missouri and the Oklahoma panhandle, and the
study itself comes on the heels of a prior 4-year study of fermenting baits in “bucket traps” in east-central Missouri, the results of which are
presented in a journal article currently in press. The venue for this meeting will be shared by email and on the WGNSS website calendar.
