New Faculty:
Dr. Andrea Lucky is our new Research Scientist in the Entomology & Nematology Department. Her appointment is 60% teaching and 40% research. She received her Ph.D. at the University of California, Davis, Department of Entomology, with a specialization in insect systematics and biogeography.
She will be teaching courses related to insect systematics and general entomology, starting with Insect Classification in fall 2012 and The Insects in spring 2013.
She is an evolutionary biologist and biodiversity scientist with a focus on insects, primarily ants. In addition to her research interests, a major goal of her work is to make science accessible and available to the general public, particularly to make the process of ‘doing’ science accessible to non-scientists. To this end, her research features citizen science and public outreach components. Her research program investigates how historical movement (colonization or introduction by humans) affects species' current geographic distribution patterns. This biogeographic perspective is crucial to understanding how both native and invasive species spread across landscapes. The tools she uses include molecular genetics, phylogenetic statistics, morphometrics and remote sensing.
You can reach Dr. Lucky by email or phone 352-273-3952 (office), 352-273-3930 (lab). Her office and lab are in Steinmetz Hall 2108 (Office), 2125 (Lab).
Dr. Jiri Hulcr is our new Forest Entomologist at the School of Forest Resources and Conservation and the Department of Entomology. His appointment is 60% research and 40% extension (no teaching, but he plans to do a few guest lectures). He received one Ph.D. at South Bohemia University, Czech Republic (2008, Tropical Ecology) and a second Ph.D. at Michigan State University (2009, Molecular Insect Systematics).
His work focuses on symbioses between organisms big and small: between fungi and insects that farm those fungi, between fungi and bacteria that live inside those fungi, and between insects and trees. The last one is a symbiosis that sometimes goes out of balance and destroys a continent-worth of forests, which is when you need a forest entomologist to find out what happened and how to prevent it next time. He finds the diversity and ecological success of these symbioses a wonderful testimony to the enormous creative power of biological evolution.
You can reach Dr. Hulcr by email or phone- 352-273-0299.
Retirements:
Pam Howell, our word processor, will be retiring at the end of July. Pam has been a UF employee for a total of 35 years. Pam served many functions in the Department including editing, website maintenance, supply inventory, and space allocations.
Kathy Milne has been a Biologist for the last 35 years. She worked with Dr. Jim Nation, Dr. Dan Hahn and is currently working with Dr. Phil Koehler. Kathy will be retiring at the end of June.
Thomas Fasulo plans to retire at the end of June 2012. Known as a national leader in extension computing his early work helped to build the communication structure for IFAS that many of us take for granted today. From online and distance CEU tutorials to web delivery of entomology and nematology factsheets his impressive legacy will be maintained. Many of the websites he developed over the course of his career will be maintained by the following faculty members: Dr. Amanda Hodges will maintain Pest Alert, Dr. Rebecca Baldwin will maintain the online tutorials he developed, Dr. Russ Mizell will maintain the WoodyBug site, and Dr. Jennifer Gillett-Kaufman will maintain the newsletter and Featured Creatures.
Dr. Howard Frank plans to retire at the end of June 2012, and then to continue to entomologize, especially with Staphylinidae, which are the largest family of insects based on currently recognized almost 57,000 valid species names worldwide.
After a BSc degree in Zoology at King's College, University of Durham, UK, Howard Frank trained as a D.Phil. student at the University of Oxford in insect ecology under Dr. George C. Varley. He soon learned that if and when insect ecologists work on natural populations, someone must make the identifications. He learned to identify British Carabidae and Staphylinidae because there was nobody available to help him. What were available were outdated keys, and a terrific departmental insect collection.
Over the years, he published >40 papers on Staphylinidae, almost all of them on behavior and distribution. He published just 5 on Carabidae.
Why bother? Because Staphylinidae are truly fascinating insects, important in so many ecosystems, long neglected because the commonly held untruth is that “nobody can identify them.” It is true that there are very many undescribed species, and it is true that there are few good keys (in comparison with the number of available keys on pest species of numerous families). But every entomologist of his generation and earlier was at one time (in the last century) exhorted to develop some competency in identification of a favored family of insects. Just a few examples in Entomology and Nematology at UF are Dr. Fred Bennett (retired in 1993) who could handle identification of various Apoidea and Chalcidoidea (Hymenoptera), Dr. Tom Walker (emeritus professor) who has published on taxonomy of crickets and katydids, Dr. Marjorie Hoy, who has worked on phytoseiid mites, and Dr. John Capinera who has contributed to taxonomic works on grasshoppers.
Dr. Frank admits he has 2-3 growing manuscripts on mole crickets still to be published.
Farewell and Good Luck:
Dr. Gaurav Goyal, Alumni and Post Doctoral Researcher at the Citrus Research and Education Center has accepted the position of Technology Development Representative Associate at Monsanto starting 18 June 2012.
Dr. Alejandra Maruniak has accepted a position at Santa Fe College.

Outreach return to top
On May 31st, 156 fifth-graders from Vineyards School in Naples arrived at the Southwest Florida Research and Education Center and were treated to an hour’s worth of information on where their food comes from, what citrus pests are out there, beneficial insects, and a little basic science behind growing crops. Dr. Phil Stansly directed the 20 minute hayride around the Center grounds, while Jamie Burrow (Program Assistant at Lake Alfred AG-CREC) showed brief movies on predatory fire ants (Yay! Awesome!) and emerging parasitoids from psyllid nymphs (insert *ewww* from the crowd here). Drs. Cesar Monzo and Moneen Jones along with their assistant Zach Lahey (MS graduate student) showed students preserved insects (psyllids, mites, parasitoids) via microscopes with monitors (thanks to Jamie) and boxed insect collections. Everyone had a terrific time!
Getting Social: We have several social media sites for the Entomology & Nematology Department. To make them easily searchable, all three (YouTube, Facebook and Twitter) have the same page name, UFEntomology. Please share these links with past students or colleagues who may have an interest in departmental activities.

Announcements return to top
Proposed Insect Common Names Open for Comment: To view the proposed common names, click here. At its November 2011 meeting in Reno, Nevada, the ESA Governing Board voted to approve a request from the Committee on Common Names of Insects for them to consider accepting groups of common names involving North American insects and related arthropods that have been developed and promoted by some scientific societies and professional organizations, and if accepted, to incorporate these names into the ESA common names database. As a result, the Common Names Committee is recommending merging the Dragonfly Society of America (DSA) common names list with ours.
There are 460 names in the DSA common names list, all of which have been reviewed and recommended for approval by the Committee on Common Names. As is customary, these names are being submitted to the ESA membership for comment. Please submit any comments by July 6, 2012 to Eric Rebek, the committee chair, at eric.rebek@okstate.edu.
