Dear Colleagues,
With the year drawing to a close, now is a good time to start thinking about travel plans for 2015 by reading the latest IUFRO RG 7.03 Entomology newsletter at:
http://forestinsects.org/iufro/70300_Newsletter_2014.pdf
Please take note of the information about the several IUFRO Forest Entomology working party meetings being planned for 2015. I'm sure that most of you would agree that IUFRO working party meetings are a fantastic opportunity to visit with old colleagues, meet new ones and find out about exciting new work happening in our field in different parts of the world.
In addition to information about upcoming conferences, the newsletter also contains reports on past meetings as well as news about the latest recipient of the George Varley award for excellence in forest insect research.
I wish all of you a peaceful holiday season and a great 2015!
-Sandy

Dear Forest Entomology Colleagues,
Below is the first announcement of the joint 7.03.05 / 7.03.12 meeting to
be held in Bariloche (Patagonia), Argentina 1-4 Sept., 2015. I believe this
is going to be an excellent meeting of interest to anybody working on bark-
/ wood-boring insects or those interested in the role of globalization on
forest insect and disease invasions. -Sandy Liebhold
[image: logo iufro2015 800px]
Research on the ecology and pest management of bark and wood boring insects
is constantly moving forward. This is partly due to an array of non-native
species, arriving into new areas and increasingly affecting native and
plantation forests worldwide. Several species are thus shared by more than
one country and region attracting cross-border research. Focused on these
shared concerns, IUFRO Sections *7.03.05 "Ecology and Management of Bark
and Wood Boring Insects" and Section 7.03.12 "**Alien Invasive Species and
International Trade"* will meet in Bariloche, Argentina in September 1-4,
2015. This joint meeting will be organized by GEPI (Grupo de Ecologia de
Poblaciones de Insectos - INTA EEA Bariloche). This research group has been
studying the population ecology and behavior of the woodwasp Sirex noctilio
and its natural enemies for the past 10 years.
Bariloche is a small city located in Patagonia, by the Nahuel Huapi lake,
at the foot of the Andes.The city is situated within the Nahuel Huapi
National Park, and lies on an impressive landscape that varies in a range
of a few kilometers from steppe to rain-forest in an East-West direction,
surrounded by the stunning beauty of mountains and lakes.
We plan an exciting venue, expecting the highest academic standards. The
meeting will include a field trip to visit several areas of native and
planted forests in Patagonia.

list

Dear Colleagues,
Does anyone know a diet for rearing larvae of Dendrolimus pini or other
species of Dendrolimus (or species belonging to Lasiocampidae developing on
pines)?
Would be grateful for any suggestion,
Lidia Sukovata

Multiple assistantships (M.S. and Ph.D.) available to study native and non-native forest insect dynamics at the School of Environmental and Forest Sciences, University of Washington, Seattle, Washington
Anticipated Start Date: Autumn Quarter, 2015
Application Deadline: December 31, 2014 for Priority Consideration
Multiple graduate student assistantships are available in the laboratory of Dr. Patrick Tobin starting in Autumn Quarter, 2015.
Students selected for these assistantships will have the opportunity to participate in one of several research projects broadly aimed at quantifying the roles of abiotic and biotic factors on the rate of non-native insect establishment and spread, and their effects on native ecosystems; and investigating relationships among native insects, plant pathogens, and climate in second-growth Douglas-fir forests in western Washington. Potential projects could include field-based research, laboratory-based research, and modeling, or a combination of all three.
Applications from students with interests in invasion ecology, entomology, and forest ecology are encouraged to apply. Students with a strong quantitative and/or GIS background are particularly encouraged to apply.
Interested students should send an email to pctobin(a)uw.edu and include the following:
(1) A cover letter outlining your relevant coursework and experience, research interests, and career goals; and
(2) Your Curriculum Vitae that includes your undergraduate and (if relevant) graduate GPA, and your GRE scores.
Applicants will also need to formally apply to the School of Environmental and Forest Sciences. See the following link for instructions:
http://www.sefs.washington.edu/academicPrograms/graduate/applicant_appProce…
