This Month’s Presenter
Date | Thursday, May 21 | 7-8PM
Moths of the Finger Lakes
Jason Dombroskie Manager Cornell Insect Collection and Diagnostic Lab
This journey into the hidden lives of moths and their caterpillars will look at some of the amazing species in your backyard. Some take medicine to fight parasites, bubble poison from their necks, produce pheromones that can be smelled from over a mile away, or jam bat echolocation. We will examine caterpillars with gills, stinky tentacles, and horns that squirt acid. We will also explore how individual species have and continue to shape entire ecosystems as well as how you can both observe and help moths.
If the weather cooperates we will have a light outside to look at the moths that come in after the talk.
