>From Patty Calabrese: Greetings Cavers, Join us for this meeting at Walt's place in the Lakeway area while we settle on a new permanent meeting location. Address is 16216 Stewart Road, Austin, TX 78734. Guests may start arriving around 7:30, BYOB, and the talk will be projected outdoors, so start time is 8:30pm for this one.
We will hear from Randy Gibson with the US Fish and Wildlife Service's Aquatic Resources Center. His expertise is in invertebrate zoology and aquatic biology. Mr. Gibson’s research background is primarily on invertebrate communities of springs in east, central, and west Texas and threatened and endangered species of the Edwards Aquifer (e.g. Devils River minnow, Comal Springs riffle beetle, Comal Springs dryopid beetle, and Peck’s cave amphipod). He is currently working on captive breeding strategies for these listed species and working with others to learn more about the rare and relatively unknown spring and cave invertebrates of Texas.
