Beetles are COOL!!
My little bug trip for the summer. June 21 through Aug 3. With stops in Rome-India-Singapore-Malaysia-Borneo-North Vietnam-South Korea. The biggest chunks of time will be in India, Malaysia, and Vietnam, with a couple days in Rome, Singapore (4th of July), and Borneo to climb this mountain http://www.peakbagger.com/peak.aspx?pid=10966
And it's all in the name of science to collect beetles for the Beetle Tree of Life Project http://tolweb.org/tree/phylogeny.html
where my PhD funding is coming from.
