here's a male #megaloprepus_caerulatus #damselfly from #LaSelva, #CostaRica. These magnificent creatures are the biggest #odonate in the #world, breed in #phytotelmata, eat #spiders, and are all-around totally #awesome
Some good news among the chaos: Great Green and Scarlet Macaws are on the up-and-up in Northeast Costa Rica! Check out our new publication! jco.birdscaribbean.org/index…
For any ecologists still out here, I'm thrilled to share a paper a long time in the making! We examine population dynamics and the role of weather (🌩️🌬️🍃) on an endangered 🦋!
Great work, @swamphiker, @MikesMothModels , and @JCDanielsLab (@FloridaMuseum)! authors.elsevier.com/sd/arti…
I'm pleased to share a new paper, out today. Learn about the fountain of youth across the tree of life (or that there isn't much of one unless you can hack processes of cell division!)
This one got me out of my comfort zone which was quite fun!

Awesome paper by a great group!
📢 Exciting news! Our paper "Systematic challenges and opportunities in insect monitoring: a Global South perspective" has just been published online in @royalsociety's journal #PhilTransB. 🦋🌍 Check it out here: doi.org/10.1098/rstb.2023.01… #InsectMonitoring

How come this article, with fieldwork conducted in Colombia, has no Colombian authors, not even authors affiliated with Colombian institutions?
Very pleased to see my final PhD chapter published! journals.flvc.org/troplep/ar…
It was a great way to end my degree and collaborate with some great friends! @melsanc @DrAnyaBrown

This postdoc position focused on microclimate and forest biodiversity is still open and we're accepting applications until Nov.30. The HJ Andrews @HJA_Live @USLTER is a fantastic community (both human and forest)! Start date (somewhat) negotiable. Please retweet.
Interested in species distributions, microclimate and old-growth forests? Are you a PhD field ecologist with strong quant skills? Excellent postdoc opportunity at the HJ Andrews LTER @HJA_Live @USLTER in Oregon (@OregonState). Please come and work with us! gradschool.oregonstate.edu/p…
Congrats to Dr. Paul Snyder, aka @WarDrumRhythm, aka Dr. EXPERT on this paper! I learned a ton helping out, including that results don't often fit cleanly into "established" theory. Learn more about disease dilution/amplification in 🐸🐸 here!

Hey @alieward , big @Ologies fan here! Have you ever thought about an #odontology episode? #Dragonflies and #damselflies are awesome, crazy, and accessible to inspire so many! So many coop factoids I (& others) would love to share!

Great week with great folks at #ATBC2022, seeing old friends and making new ones. Here's to more great tropical science. Y'all are always invited to Caño Palma bio station to keep up the great work!

Fierce Melon is the favorite #GATORADE flavor of the Miami Blue butterflies (and me!). But sadly, @Gatorade, it's awfully hard to find!
#MuseumLife Spotlight: While Gatorade is a staple here on @UF campus, our @JCDanielsLab team often use it as a substitute for nectar in a laboratory-maintained colony of Miami blues, among the most critically endangered butterflies in North America.

Florida is working to block consensus standards for medical care for transgender youth. Our IDEA Committee led a group of >600 UF community members calling for evidence-based policy & established healthcare for transgender youth. #ProtectTransKids alligator.org/article/2022/0…
The war on minority and marginalized identities is horrifying, upsetting, and has no acceptable place in the world, much less academic institutions. Join us calling on @UF and #florida politicians to allow *all people* the rights and access that all humans deserve!
