Announcement from Dr. John Epler Regarding Available Workshops:

"I've had numerous requests to provide additional workshops on
identifying larval midges and water beetles.

Thus I will be offering a larval midge (Chironomidae) identification
workshop 23-25 June 2008 at Wakulla Springs (northern Florida). This course
will emphasize Florida/Southeastern US taxa, but more can be covered
depending on participants.

I will also offer a water beetle identification workshop 7-9 October
2008 at Wakulla Springs, also emphasizing Florida/Southeastern US taxa.
