The Daintree Rainforest Observatory in Queensland Australia is without a doubt one of the coolest research sites I’ve visited. The team there have been using the full-sized research crane to position our insect traps in the tree canopy! A peculiar/amazing sight in the middle of the rainforest 🌴🌳🏗️🌴🌳

New open-access research! Nematodes are super cool, and we prove it on an isolated desert island. We found near perfect turnover in trophic group along a vegetation/elevation gradient. We also warn that root-parasitic nematodes seem to spread with non-native vegetation. dx.doi.org/10.1007/s105...

A highlight of living in Hong Kong is having these Critically Endangered Yellow-Crested Cockatoos diligently tearing bits off the outside of your apartment, I guess

Greetings from Hong Kong! Looking forward to chatting #entomology, #ecology and #conservation with you all. Here's a new species to science to say hello: a desert-island woodlouse known from inside turtle nests..! From recent work on remote Ascension Island 🏝️
