The Department of Entomology at Kansas State University cordially invites everyone to the 75th Annual Meeting of the Kansas Entomological Society to be held April 30 - May 1, 1999, here in Manhattan. The title of this year's symposium is: "Prairie Insects: Ecology, Biodiversity, and Conservation." Themes of the symposium include the ecological roles of insects and other arthropods in native grasslands, biodiversity studies, habitat relationships, conservation issues, and how arthropod communities are impacted by grassland management practices such as prescribed burning and haying. The general session features 12 minute oral presentations or posters that can relate to any aspect of arthropod biology. There will be a buffet/reception at the Konza Prairie and guided tours of this remarkable tallgrass prairie preserve located just a few miles south of Manhattan. Also planned is a workshop on identification of common dragonflies and damselflies of the Great Plains, organized by Ralph Charlton and Roy Beckemeyer. The workshop will stress identification of adults through the use of preserved specimens and newly constructed computer-based visual keys that emphasize useful field marks. Questions concerning the symposium, workshop, or meeting should be directed to: Ralph Charlton, Associate Professor, Department of Entomology, Kansas State University,232 W. Waters Hall, Manhattan, KS 66506; FAX: 785-532-6232; TEL: 785-532-4717; email: rcharlto@oz.oznet.ksu.edu. After March 15, updated information and on-line registration forms will also be available on the meeting web site: http://www.oznet.ksu.edu/entomology/ (scroll down the buttons on left side of page to 'MEETINGS') --------------------------------------------------------------------- To sign-off this list, send email to majordomo@mallorn.com with the message text UNSUBSCRIBE PRAIRIE
