Oblique Streaktail ID event

Hi everyone!

We're happy to announce an online meeting next week! This is a follow-up to the pilot event a month or so ago that was announced on the forum.

Here are the details:

The Zoom meeting will open at approximately 4 P.M. EST on Sunday the 17th.

The plan is to focus on the Oblique Streaktail, Allograpta obliqua. We'll start by taking a quick look at our key to Allograpta in the Nearctic region. You'll each be provided with a unique set of observations of A. obliqua to practice on, and we can address questions that come up as a group.

Join the Zoom Meeting here:

Meeting ID: 774 8757 4149
Passcode: diptera

Feel free to let us know if you're planning on attending in the comments! Questions about the event are also welcome.

I will be able to attend it. I guess the time will be EST but you should precise it. Thank you for organizing another Zoom meeting.

I'm quite interested, but only if the weather is bad. If it's a nice day, I'll be out in the field.

Thank you to everyone who came for making it such a success! 'Needs ID' Allograpta obliqua are down to almost 0 and I think we all learned a lot.

Thank you for the fun and enlightening session!

I feel better about ID'ing Allograpta than I do about navigating through a ZOOM meeting, but thanks for your patience and your helpfulness, and especially for the guides which answer so many questions! I look forward to using your guides a lot in the future.
