SUMMARY:Online talk April 2023 - Arnold van Huis
DESCRIPTION:The Royal Entomological Society organises insect science conferences and events around the UK and the world for people at all stages of career and interest.\n\n\n\nBecoming a member entitles you to discounted (and sometimes free) access to the majority of events.\n\n\n\n\nBecome a RES Member\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe Royal Entomological Society’s online talk series\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThese online meetings take place on the first Wednesday of the month from 19.30 to 20.45 (UK time).  \n\n\n\nThere will also be an opportunity to hear some exciting updates about the Society and its activities. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nNote: All attendees\, including members\, must register below to receive the link to attend the talk.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSpeaker: Arnold van Huis\n\n\n\nProfessor of Tropical Entomology \n\n\n\nWageningen University\, Netherlands. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nEdible Insects: Progress and Prospects\n\n\n\nDuring the last six years the number of articles dealing with edible insects increased exponentially. As feed for animals\, the black soldier fly is often targeted\, mainly because the larvae can transform many different organic side streams of low economic value in high value proteins and fats. \n\n\n\nMicrobial communities in substrates and the insect gut may help in the conversion of low-quality organic side streams. The nutritional values of insect products compare well to those of the common meat products. Health benefits of insects relate to the high content of polyunsaturated fatty acids\, the high iron and zinc content\, the antioxidant capacity\, and the positive effects on the gut microbiota. Chitin strengthens the immune system in humans and in animals\, improves plant growth and activates plant defense. The fat of insects can be technology applied as bio lubricants\, biodiesel\, cosmetics\, and butter replacements in bakery products. Proteins can be employed as a base for bioplastics used for agricultural purposes. The environmental impact of producing insects is lower than that of common production animals. Legislation is gradually becoming more conducive. \n\n\n\nA major challenge for human consumption is to process insects and disguise them in familiar products and make them safe and appetizing. Several strategies are proposed to convince consumers to go from an occasional snack to mainstream food. Professor Arnold Van Huis is Chief Editor of the Journal of Insects as Food and Feed and researches and advocates edible insects both for humans and for livestock.  \n\n\n\nIn the 2010 French documentary Global Steak\, he says that locusts can produce 1kg protein from 2kg fodder compared to a cow needing 10kg fodder to produce the same amount of protein. Other benefits are that locusts do not produce greenhouse gases and do not need antibiotics. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMembers need to login to register for free

As well as oral and poster presentations\, there will be opportunities for workshops and various other forms of offshoot meetings\, e.g. for editorial boards\, large project meetings etc. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFull details TBC \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nCongress Theme\n\n\n\nScience as a basis for the sustainable use and conservation of soil biodiversity \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSpeakers\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nProfessor Tom Bolger\n\n\n\nUniversity College DublinChairman of Conference Organising Committee \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nProfessor Bolger is a Science graduate from University College Dublin. Having completed a Higher Diploma in Education he gained a Ph. D. in Agricultural Zoology and later studied computer modelling. He has been a member of staff at UCD since 1981. His primary research interests are in the effects of global change on terrestrial biodiversity and nutrient dynamics in soil systems. He has been involved with EU projects in these areas since 1988 and\, in 1997\, he was a Fulbright Scholar\, at the Institute of Ecology\, University of Georgia\, examining the relationship between biodiversity and ecosystem function. He also has a particular interest in experimental design and statistical models and has published in these areas. He was a member of the Editorial Boards of many journals and was a Subject Editor for Soil Biology and Biochemistry and an Associate Editor of Insect Conservation and Diversity for many years. He was awarded a Lifetime Achievement Award by the Irish Ecological Association in 2021. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nProfessor Diana H. Wall\n\n\n\nColorado State UniversityScience Chair\, Global Soil Biodiversity Initiative \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDiana Wall works on soil biodiversity and ecosystem functioning in any ecosystems. She works at the physical limits to life in the Antarctic dry valleys where climate change effects are amplified and species diversity is much reduced compared to other soil ecosystems. Across these ice-free ecosystems\, she and her colleagues showed that soil nematodes—microscopic worms— represent the top of the terrestrial food chain. One species\, Scottnema lindsayae\, had a surprisingly broad distribution and high abundance in drier\, more saline soils\, than other less abundant species found in aquatic systems (e.g\, glacial meltstreams. This knowledge on habitat preference can be used to help predict how species and ecosystems might respond to climate change. \n\n\n\nWall’s more than 25 years of research in the Antarctic continues to clarify the critical links between climate change and soil biodiversity. Her interdisciplinary research with the McMurdo Dry Valley LTER has uncovered dramatic impacts to invertebrate communities in response to climate change\, the key role nematode species play in soil carbon turnover\, and how they survive such extreme environments. A 20-year long-term field project on climate change is revealing that with increased carbon sources\, warming and water events\, the dominant\, physiologically tough Scottnema species that preys on soil bacteria across the dry landscape (also referred to as the “lion of the McMurdo dry valleys”) declined while others increased. By altering the soil physical and chemical habitat through increased moisture\, warming for the future creates a more homogenous soil community with unknown effects on soil carbon turnover rates\, a fundamentally important ecosystem process. Wall has combined her polar research with global scale field studies demonstrating that soil animals increase decomposition rates more in temperate and moist tropical climates than in cold and dry conditions\, indicating a latitudinal gradient in their roles in ecosystems. \n\n\n\nDiana served as President of the Ecological Society of America\, the American Institute of Biological Sciences\, and the Society of Nematologists. Diana received the 2017 Eminent Ecologist Award from the Ecological Society of America\, the 2019 President’s Medal and 2016 Honorary Member award from the British Ecological Society\, the 2015 Ulysses Medal from University College Dublin\, the 2012 SCAR President’s Medal for Excellence in Antarctic Research and the 2013 Soil Science Society of America Presidential Award. Wall Valley\, Antarctica was named in 2004 to recognize her research. She is a Fellow of the Ecological Society of America and the Society of Nematologists and holds an Honorary Doctorate from Utrecht University\, The Netherlands. Diana is an elected member of the National Academy of Sciences and the American Academy of Arts and Sciences and is the 2013 Laureate of the Tyler Prize for Environmental Achievement. Diana is currently Science Chair\, Global Soil Biodiversity Initiative. She is the Inaugural Director of the School of Global Environmental Sustainability at Colorado State University. Diana earned a B.A. in biology and Ph.D. in plant pathology at the University of Kentucky\, Lexington. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nABSTRACT SUBMISSION OPENS JUNE 3\, 2022\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nGSB3-Announcement — Global Soil Biodiversity Initiative \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWhy attend?\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe Global Soil Biodiversity Initiative\, launched in 2011\, is a major stakeholder in the development of soil biodiversity policy\, and the accelerating scientific knowledge underpinning the vast biological diversity contained in terrestrial soils worldwide.  Among its various activities\, the GSBI launched the Global Soil Biodiversity Conference held in Dijon (France\, 2014) and more recently in Nanjing (China\, 2017). \n\n\n\nThe 3rd Global Soil Biodiversity Conference to be held in Dublin (Ireland) in 2023 will expand on previous GSBI conferences and convene the world’s leading experts in this interdisciplinary field of soil biodiversity science to present and discuss recent advances addressing the urgency of meeting global challenges which link to human\, animal and plant health and a more sustainable world. The conference will be the top meeting for all scientists\, technologists\, experimentalists and modellers\, students and practitioners working on any aspects of soil biodiversity science and its linkages to the functioning of our global biosphere. The conference will provide the latest updates on soil biodiversity research and knowledge for scientists\, policy makers\, regulators\, environmental agencies\, conservationists\, land user managers and other stakeholders in the sustainable use and conservation of soil biodiversity. \n\n\n\nFor further information on the GSBI’s activities\, please see their website at \n\n\n\nwww.globalsoilbiodiversity.org\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFull details on booking TBC \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWe look forward to seeing you in Dublin. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nNote – We do not provide recordings of events or presentations as standard\, unless otherwise stated.

But there are so many other pressures on a busy entomologist’s time that it can sometimes feel like there is too much to do to have enough time to tell people about it! We need to find ways to combine activities\, and to do more with less; a citizen science approach to entomology is one way to do that.  \n\n\n\nCitizen science involves scientists working in partnership with the public\, and it can be both a powerful research and engagement tool. Professor Adam Hart will outline his experiences with entomological citizen science research\, including projects on ant nuptial flights and social wasp surveys supported by the Royal Entomological Society. By working with the public\, he’ll show how it is possible to produce high-quality research and achieve useful\, high impact\, outreach on both short and long-term projects. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAdam Hart is an entomologist and the university’s Professor of Science Communication. As well as research and teaching\, he is a regular broadcaster for BBC Radio 4 and the BBC World Service\, presenting documentaries on topics from trophy hunting to tree diseases. He has also presented the weekly science program Science in Action for the BBC World Service. On television\, Adam has co-presented several documentary series\, most notably BBC4’s Planet Ant and BBC2’s Hive Alive. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMembers need to login to register for free

SUMMARY:Alien Species in the Maltese islands - Online Meeting with David Mifsud
DESCRIPTION:The Royal Entomological Society frequently hosts and advertises UK and international events year-round for people of all stages of interest and career.\n\n\n\nBecoming a member entitles you to discounts (and sometimes free) access to majority of events.\n\n\n\n\nBecome a RES Member\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAlien Species in the Maltese islands \n\n\n\nOnline Meeting with Professor David Mifsud\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDespite the fact that the central Mediterranean Islands of the Maltese archipelago are surrounded by the sea and the nearest land mass (Sicily) is some 90 km away\, almost all alien species of insects that invaded the Mediterranean basin managed to find their way also to Malta. A brief overview will be provided of these alien species and their possible introductory pathways discussed. Their impacts on the natural environment will also be highlighted. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThank you to those who attended our ‘Alien Species in the Maltese islands’ online meeting with Professor David Mifsud live.\n\n\n\nWe were able to successfully record this meeting and are pleased to be able to share this with you if you missed it\, or just wanted to watch it again! \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nNote: All attendees\, including members\, must register below to receive the link to attend the talk.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nProfessor David Mifsud graduated with a B.Sc. and M.Sc. in Biology from the University of Malta and then he continued his studies in Switzerland (Basel) from where he earned a Ph.D. in zoology. He is also a Fellow of the Linnean Society (FLS) and of the Royal Entomological Society (FRES). He was also awarded the National Order of Merit (MOM) for his vast contributions in the study of entomology. Currently\, David holds the post of Associate Professor in Entomology at the Department of Rural Sciences and Food Technology at the Institute of Earth Systems\, University of Malta and he is also Director of the Centre for the Liberal Arts and Sciences. He also serves on government boards mainly related to plant health and beekeeping. \n\n\n\nDavid is also President of the Entomological Society of Malta (ESM) and Founder of the Association of Maltese Apiculturists (AMA). Both NGOs are directly linked with the study and dissemination of information on insects\, a subject\, for which David dedicated most of his career. \n\n\n\nDavid published more about 200 publications in scientific journals. Most of his publications focus on studies related to biodiversity with special reference to that of the Maltese Islands. His main area of research is that pertaining to the study of insects (entomology)\, but he is also actively involved in other studies such as that for mites\, plant pathogenic fungi and plant parasitic nematodes. David has also described more than 80 species of insects new to science. \n\n\n\nDavid is editor of a peer-reviewed scientific journal devoted to the study of insects\, the “Bulletin of the Entomological Society of Malta”. In these last eight years\, David managed to involve 30 Maltese naturalists and some more than 80 scientists from abroad to publish their original research work pertaining mostly to the study of Maltese insects in this journal. In fact\, to-date nine volumes have been published which contain around over 150 scientific publications\, providing information on more than 1\,600 species of insects which occur in the natural environment of out islands. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nNote – We do not provide recordings of events or presentations as standard\, unless otherwise stated.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nNote: All attendees\, including members\, must register below to receive the link to attend the talk.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMembers need to login to register for free

Although both abiotic and biotic factors can shape the genetic diversity of a population\, the effects of biotic factors are often unexplored. One of these biotic factors could be Wolbachia\, a common endosymbiotic bacterium found in >40% of insect species. Wolbachia can manipulate host reproduction in many ways and thus influence the genetic diversity of a population. Blue-tailed damselfly (Ischnura elegans)\, or Common Bluetail\, is a species expanding northward under global climate change. Although several studies have looked at the population genetics of I. elegans\, no one has investigated Wolbachia and its potential effects on the genetic diversity of this damselfly species. In our study\, we characterized Wolbachia diversity and genetic diversity of I. elegans populations across Europe by sequencing various Wolbachia and host genetic markers. Our results linked the reduction of genetic diversity of I. elegans populations to the infection of a Wolbachia strain. These findings provided an example of how endosymbiont infections can shape spatial variation in the genetic diversity of their host populations during range expansion. \n\n\n\nVariable Damselflies by Keith Noble\n\n\n\nDragonflies of Llangorse Lake \n\n\n\nKeith Noble (County Dragonfly Recorder for Breconshire) \n\n\n\nLlangorse Lake is the largest natural water body in south/mid-Wales and is important for a wide range of wildlife. In recent years the number of dragonfly species has increased and this summer the Lake was recognised as a Dragonfly Hotspot\, with good support from local organisations and the community. I shall illustrate the talk with my own photographs. \n\n\n\nImage: Willow Emerald Damselfly by Thomas Bresson \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nOther\n\n\n\nRequirements \n\n\n\nBooking required: Register here \n\n\n\nContact: eleanor.colver@british-dragonflies.org.uk

DESCRIPTION:The Royal Entomological Society organises insect science conferences and events around the UK and the world for people at all stages of career and interest.\n\n\n\nBecoming a member entitles you to discounted (and sometimes free) access to the majority of events.\n\n\n\n\nBecome a RES Member\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe Royal Entomological Society’s online talk series\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThese online meetings take place on the first Wednesday of the month from 19.30 to 20.45 (UK time). \n\n\n\nThere will also be an opportunity to hear some exciting updates about the Society and its activities. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nNote: All attendees\, including members\, must register below to receive the link to attend the talk.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSpeaker: Sophia Ratcliffe\n\n\n\nNBN Atlas Data Manager \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n31 million and counting – Insect records on the NBN Atlas\n\n\n\nThe National Biodiversity Network (NBN) Atlas is the UK’s largest repository of publicly available biodiversity data. With more than 200 million records of 50\,000 UK species it is a vital resource for those who wish to understand and protect nature.  \n\n\n\nThis talk will introduce the NBN Trust\, the charity that runs the NBN Atlas\, and iNaturalistUK\, the collaboration between the NBN Trust\, Biological Records Centre and Marine Biological Association\, which supports and promotes the use of iNaturalist for wildlife recording in the UK. I will present an overview of the 31 million insect records on the NBN Atlas\, including how well different insect groups are represented on the NBN Atlas\, explore examples of how entomologists are using iNaturalistUK for their recording\, and illustrate the impact of sharing wildlife records both nationally and internationally through the Global Biodiversity Forum (GBIF). The flow of records into – and out of – the NBN Atlas\, including the automated transfer of records from iRecord and iNaturalistUK\, will be discussed\, and we will go through the guidance on submitting records to iNaturalistUK to make sure that every record can play its part in restoring nature. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAfter completing her PhD. on competition and coexistence in annual plant communities\, Sophia spent several years as a database and software developer. She moved back into academia working partly as the data manager for a European-wide project investigating the importance of biodiversity in European forests. Sophia has worked as an ecologist doing Phase One habitat surveys and volunteered as a biological recorder for her local Wildlife Trust. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMembers need to login to register for free

SUMMARY:Evening online talk 2022 - Jane Hill
DESCRIPTION:The Royal Entomological Society organises insect science conferences and events around the UK and the world for people at all stages of career and interest.\n\n\n\nBecoming a member entitles you to discounted (and sometimes free) access to the majority of events.\n\n\n\n\nBecome a RES Member\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe first of the Royal Entomological Society’s online evening meetings\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThese online meetings take place on the first Wednesdays in February\, April\, May\, June\, July\, October\, November\, December from 19.30 to 20.45 (UK time).  \n\n\n\nThere will also be an opportunity to hear some exciting updates about the Society and its activities. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSpeaker: Professor Jane Hill\, Professor of Ecology\, University of York\n\n\n\nPresident of the Royal Entomological Society \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nInsect winners and losers from climate warming\n\n\n\nThe climate is changing and many species are shifting their distributions\, expanding northwards as new areas become suitable\, but disappearing from other locations that become too hot and dry. Britain has a wealth of information about changes in biodiversity over many decades because of the general public’s fascination for recording animals and plants – and butterflies are a particular favourite. This information helps us examine species’ responses\, and the factors responsible for variation among species. This talk examines recent patterns of climate-driven range changes among species\, and how this knowledge is being used to inform conservation. \n\n\n\nConservation to improve habitat connectivity can help species reach new areas\, and habitat management can help prevent climate-driven extinctions\, thereby helping to reduce biodiversity losses. Recent media reports about ‘insectageddon’ together with the IPBES estimate that 1 million species are threatened with extinction\, makes it imperative to understand which species are winners and losers in the Anthropocene.  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSpeckled wood butterfly – a winner under climate change \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nProf. Jane Hill is a professor of ecology in the Department of Biology at the University of York\, and the newest president of the Royal Entomological Society.  \n\n\n\nJane is a trustee of the SE Asia Rainforest Research Partnership\, and a trustee of the British Ecological Society. She received a Marsh/ZSL Award for Conservation Biology in 2011\, and is an Honorary Fellow of the Royal Entomological Society. Jane is also involved in promoting women in science; leading the York Biology Department to an Athena SWAN Gold Award. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMembers need to login to register for free

After a postdoc on the thermal ecology of a prey-predator relationship in the intertidal ecosystem at the University of South Carolina (USA)\, he joined the CNRS in 2009 to work at the Insect Biology Research Institute (Tours\, France) on the impacts of climate change on insects. His integrative work mixes ecology\, physiology\, physics\, chemistry and biometeorology\, using both experimental and modelling approaches\, to consider the microclimatic temperature that small creatures are experiencing in their microhabitat. He is now Director of Research at the CNRS to pursue on how insects perceive and respond environmental changes. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nEnto22 Talk: “The role of microclimate at fine scales in driving exposure of ectotherms to climate change: integrating biophysics\, physiology and ecology“ \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nProfessor Jessica Ware  – Associate curator in invertebrate zoology\, American Museum of Natural History\, USA: Taxonomy/ Society Engagement \n\n\n\nJessica Ware is an associate curator in invertebrate zoology at the American Museum of Natural History. Dr. Ware’s research focuses on the evolution of behavioral and physiological adaptations in insects\, with an emphasis on how these occur in Odonata (dragonflies and damselflies) and Dictyoptera (termites\, cockroaches\, and mantises). She holds a BSc from the University of British Columbia in Canada\, and a PhD from Rutgers\, New Brunswick. Dr. Ware is the past president of the Worldwide Dragonfly Association and serves as current president of the Entomological Society of America. Jessica co-founded the Entomologists of Color\, a group devoted to diversifying the field of entomology and serves as the current Diversity Director of the Society of Systematic Biologists. She was recently awarded a PECASE medal from the US government for her work on insect evolution. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nEnto22 Talk: “Diversity in entomology: creating space while studying insect evolution“ \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nProfessor Nalini Puniamoorthy – Reproductive Evolution Lab\, National University of Singapore: Ecosystem services/ Conservation \n\n\n\nDr. Nalini Puniamoorthy leads the research at the Reproductive Evolution Lab at National University of Singapore\, where they study sexual selection and biological diversification. They focus on widespread insect species and use experimental methods involving fieldwork\, geometric morphometrics as well as Next-generation-sequencing techniques to study macro-evolutionary patterns as well as micro-evolutionary processes involved in reproduction. They also focus on ecologically relevant insect models to seek solutions to diverse problems: From estimating polyandry and gene flow in mosquitos to studying reproductive diversification ecosystem service providers like dung beetles and even to engineering black soldier fly reproduction for sustainable food waste management. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nEnto22 Talk: “Insect reproduction: Understanding evolutionary diversification and seeking sustainable solutions” \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWe also welcome talks from our recent award winners\n\n\n\nConfirmed speakers: \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nJ.O.

It was an excellent beginning of a long\, lasting 40 years tradition of the Internal Symposium on Aphids meetings. After these 40 years\, the symposium returns to the country where it all began\, to Poland. The pandemic did not let us meet in 2021 as planned and established during the last ISA in Turkey in 2017. Despite this\, we would love still to treat this meeting and symposium as an anniversary one. \n\n\n\nTherefore\, we the organizing committee as well as all members of the Zoology Research Team of the University of Silesia in Katowice\, we have the honour and great pleasure to invite all of you our dear colleagues\, friends and aphidologists to participate in the XI International Anniversary Symposium on Aphids which will take place in a wonderful Beskidy Mountains area in the Kocierz Hotel in Targanice on 11-17 September 2022. \n\n\n\nAll relevant information about the conference and venue you will find on www.11isa.us.edu.pl\, and can contact us via the site or directly on 11isa@us.edu.pl \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nOrganisers \n\n\n\nMariusz Kanturski – Chairman of the organizing committee \n\n\n\nKarina Wieczorek \n\n\n\nŁukasz Depa \n\n\n\nPiotr Węgierek \n\n\n\nOrganizing Committee of the XI ISA \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPricing\n\n\n\nEarly-bird registration: 01.03–31.05.2022 – Early-bird conference fee 400 € (385 € for accompanying person).

Pollinators play a vital role in maintaining both semi-natural and agricultural ecosystems and healthy populations bolster food security\, livelihoods and social wellbeing. With evidence that many species of pollinators are in decline\, their conservation and management is of great public\, economic and political interest. As a result\, the ecology and conservation of managed and wild pollinators is a rapidly growing field of research\, alongside the study of their associated ecosystem services. \n\n\n\nThis conference aims to determine how we can shape farmed landscapes to make them resilient to future challenges such as climate change. Delegates will explore the impact of agricultural practices at the farm and landscape scale on pollinator behaviour\, ecology and the delivery of ecosystem services.

He has a degree in Zoology and Applied Entomology from Imperial College. His PhD is also from Imperial\, but the work was done at the Natural History Museum on aphids\, many of which are important pests. His entire career was spent with the Rothamsted Insect Survey (which he eventually led) at the World’s largest agricultural research institute\, Rothamsted Research. Here he worked on monitoring and forecasting aphids until his retirement in 2015. Richard joined the Royal Entomological Society in 1977 and is a former Vice-President. He is now an Honorary Fellow and trustee. He chairs the Meetings Committee and edits the Society’s quarterly bulletin\, Antenna. In 2008\, he bought on eBay an aphid fossilised in amber. It turned out to be a previously undiscovered species and was named Mindarus harringtoni Heie. Richard is proud to share his name with an old fossil. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nConfirmed Speakers\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSpeaker 1 – Dai Whittingham \n\n\n\nChief Executive\, UK Flight Safety CommitteeEx-RAF\, Air Cdre\, Deputy CommanderNATO Airborne Early Warning & Control Force. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDai Whittingham joined the RAF as a pilot in 1974.
