2010 Taxonomy Fair
Tuesday, 8 June 2010
5:30 to 7:30 pm
Scottish Rite Hall
The NABS Technical Issues Committee has scheduled the 12th annual taxonomy fair for the joint NABS/ASLO conference in Santa Fe. At the current time we have eight dedicated experts willing to provide their time to help visitors with difficult specimen identifications and confirmations for reference collections. In addition, we expect that a local aquatic specialist from the Santa Fe area will be present for this taxonomy fair to serve as a regional generalist. We have contacted and hope to add several other taxonomists for other groups, but are open to suggestions. Contact David Feldman (dfeldman@mt.gov) for details and suggestions.
Start gathering your specimens together for this event now. Remember that you can bring specimens in alcohol on an airplane if you follow the rules and regulations. Please check with your local airport for details as they might change, but in general have specimens in vials with less that 15 ml of EtOH in clear Ziploc® bags.
