Greetings,

The link to Tyler Hedlund's recent tick presentation via zoom to the
Austin Butterfly Forum has been posted.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U5GB582ARAY

Given the medical significance of ticks to entomologists who occasionally
go off trail, I'm cross posting this notice to several butterfly lists.

Note, while concentrated on US ticks, Tyler also touches on the research he
conducted in Africa on ticks of veterinary importance.

Tyler also generously provided a PDF of his presentation if that would help
anyone.

Thanks Tyler, the Austin Butterfly Forum much appreciated your
presentation!!

Mike Quinn, Austin

It?s not a mystery as to how a fresh Giant Atlas moth got to Washington. Somebody is importing cocoons and one hatched and escaped. More than 25 years ago a friend who was interested in raising moths (mostly polyphemus) was able to buy some Giant Atlas moth cocoons and brought one adult to work in a paper bag. I can?t remember how he found out how to buy the cocoons. It?s not a surprise this is still going on. If they could survive in the wild and reproduce I?ll bet there have been many opportunities over the years to do so.
