It’s good to throw a changeup every one in a while, and this week here is an article that is actually GOOD. Та, you read it here first, a positive article about entomology collections. We all need a breather after that Fox news fiasco with the Michigan State collection. The Honolulu Magazine does a really great job (hey… I knew that title sounded familiar… it’s a book by May Berenbaum) and they actually seem to get it. There are some great quotes from Dr. Neal Evenhuis (pictured) and Shepherd Myers; go read about the Bishop Museum’s collections and the awesomeness of being an entomologist on one of the most beautiful places in the world. Насправді, Neal, need a curatorial assistant?

What a great article – Evanhuis seems to be a real character. Have you seen his article, The “Mihi itch”—a brief history?
Також, I hope you and everyone else will click on the link to Olivier Koning’s photographic slide show at the end of the article – some superb images of very impressive species.
привіт Кріс,
Thanks for this link – it is so rare to find any article about science that isn’t totally buggered. I’ll pass this on at work.
And Ted – thanks for the reminder about Mihi-itch. Great paper.
