@SSheafer Thanks! It was a long road to get this last piece published.

[Elizabeth Rowen @eli_zab_rowen]

Excited and sad for my last day in the office for a while. Leaving research in excellent hands though!

[Elizabeth Rowen @eli_zab_rowen]

@jesskansperson @PSU_Entomology Everything about this makes me feel seen.

[Elizabeth Rowen @eli_zab_rowen]

Excited to share this newest publication! The culmination of thousands of hours (probably) of field work with @bikebugz + others.

@mskvarla36 That looks like an excellent solution - just purchased 18 golf cup cutters to dig pitfalls around WV. NOT CHEAP

Carcinothrips leai (female). Not a predator... it would never reach its mouth cone, which is directed backwards with the enlarged fore legs! The legs are used to create domiciles by sewing together acacia phyllodes. Collected in Alice Springs, Australia.

Happy 2/2/22 - I am ridiculously excited about how many great dates this month that in it. Can't wait for Feb 22.

[Elizabeth Rowen @eli_zab_rowen]

I need help twitter. I am looking for a meme I saw a few years ago about looking back on what you did in your first year of grad school and just hating it/ not understanding what you did or why. Does any one else remember seeing this and/or have it saved?

[WVU Insect Zoo @WVUInsectZoo]

Watch out those dominos are moving! Check out our domino roaches in disguise.

Hot off the press: New paper led by #CarlyMcGrady demonstrating that higher number of #bumblebee colonies (not counts) in pumpkin agroecosystems provide more pollination services @rufocinctus @PSU_Entomology @PSUPollinators https://t.co/hIkqBE9QsU

How good are you at hide and seek? No matter how many times you beat your little siblings at it, I doubt you ever resorted to resembling bird poop as a way to cheat the competition. There are not only moths that resemble bird poop but also, moss, trees, and dangerous predators!
