To Prospective Participants:
We are pleased to announce the fourth offering of
HYM Course (http://hymcourse.org/),
scheduled for August 512, 2012 at Tovetorp Zoological Research Station, Sweden
(http://www.zoologi.su.se/tovetorp/).
The main objective of HYM Course is to provide
participants with knowledge and experience in
identifying parasitic and predatory wasps,
sawflies, wood wasps, bees, and ants. Information on
natural history is also presented, and that
information is reinforced with fieldwork. Techniques
used to collect, rear, preserve, and curate
specimens are presented in a hands-on manner to allow
participants to learn directly by doing.
The course is limited to 25 participants.
Applications are due March 2, 2012. Please visit the
HYM Course website (http://hymcourse.org/) for
details, including information on how to apply,
costs for taking the course, and logistics of travel to and within Sweden.
We look forward to seeing you in Sweden!
