A lovely message from our Australian counterparts, @invertsau, this #EarthDay 👇
I had a great time giving a seminar at @westernsydneyu @westsyduhie yesterday on their Hawkesbury campus near the blue mountains! Thank you to everyone that came and asked super interesting questions, and @kateumbers for kindly hosting!
Australia's most spectacular butterfly! 💚 A flash of colour in the tropical rainforests of North Queensland, the Cairns Birdwing Butterfly on the fly is a sight to behold! 🥰🌳 This large butterfly can attain a wingspan of nearly 20cm wide, meaning you could almost mistake it…
The ‘Alpine Ecology Course’, hosted by LaTrobe Uni’s Research Centre for Applied Alpine Ecology, has trained land managers since the late 1980s. This week, the brilliant geomorphologist Neville Rosengren reminded students that we have globally unique soil mountains in Oz
Just a little fun for a Sat morning. @arc_gov_au funding vs fossil fuel company tax concessions in 2022-23. Big thanks to the awesome @ARC_Tracker for all that you do. Please do something to fix this @ausgov. Sources: australiainstitute.org.au/report/fossil-… arc.gov.au/about/our-orga…
Happy International Women's Day! Thank you to the many brilliant and accomplished women who are part of the Biodiversity Council and working to improve outcomes for nature and Country in Australia everyday.
It’s a big number! Lots of snails, crayfish, insects, spiders, and many other important invertebrates in Australia are listed as threatened and MANY more remain unlisted and unnamed (by Western science) but nonetheless imperilled. #insectconservation #invertebrateconservation

#SciComm is a female-dominated field often undervalued as "care work", especially in academia. Our latest preprint examines sentiments around sci-comm in the life sciences and asks, if it's so poorly rewarded, why do people do it? 🧵⬇️ 1/n biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Watching #planetearth3 whisked me back 25years to baby-face Backshall with @NatGeo to find out how climate change would affect monarch butterflies;we are still having the same conservations about climate change. Will #COP28 make headway, or make the wrong headlines?
@davidcsimon @InvertoPhiles @kateumbers could advise
Can any entomologists help me identify these larvae that I found apparently munching on a fungus ball last night? They're about 2cm long. iNaturalist is stumped. Lower Blue Mountains, NSW, AU.
@invertsau Can only find a argentinian scarab so haven't reported it on inaturalist
We did it! We made a conference! Thanks to @megabugface and @DrEmSherratt for all their hard work as President and Vice President. And to Emma’s team for supporting Exec Committee to keep the show running! #AUSEVOL2023 @AustEvolSoc
"Ask Dad to pick up cards for you when he buys petrol from a Shell station" My mother-in-law's collection of '60s beetle cards from @Shell ! Anyone else remember these? So cool. Can we get a reprint for the kids today???
Omg😡 The last two GoPro 11’s I’ve bought secondhand off people have ended up being duds and both sellers ghosting me. WHY would you do this to someone who just WANTS TO FILM FISH! 😭😭😭
Some sad news for evolutionary ecology in Australia. I’m very disappointed we struggle to retain top talent. ualberta.ca/folio/2023/11/… That said - Many congrats to @itchyshin and Canada. 🥳🎉🍾 @festa_bianchet @WidowWeb @EcoEvoEvoEco @Brooks_Rob @kokkonutter @LoeskeKruuk
A new paper from our Amata moth project is now out @BehavEcol! We did predation trials with noisy miners and found that birds used abdominal stripes of the moths as a primary warning signal, which could relax selection on consistent wing patterns #colsci academic.oup.com/beheco/advance…
