Collecting of Parasitic wasps (Hymenoptera: Braconidae: Microgastrinae)
Principal Investigator: Goulet, Henri
Licensed Year(s): 2010
Summary: The research plan is to collect specimens of as many species (named or not) of the wasp subfamily Microgastrinae (Hymenoptera: Braconidae) to get recent and properly preserved specimens for DNA barcoding and taxonomic resolution. The goal is to know more about the diversity of these wasps and to be able to compare the recently wasp fauna with re-identified specimens sampled in the 1950’s. To achi...


Biology, ecology and cold tolerance of arctic insects
Principal Investigator: Ring, Richard A.
Licensed Year(s): 1993 1992 1990 1987
Summary: As part of a long term study, I will continue to examine the biology of arctic and subarctic insects. Information will be collected on insect distributions as well as insect adaptations to living in environments with extremely cold winters and short summers. Studies on insect communities in the north may be good indicators of global climate change since they are short-lived species with limited a...


Electrophoretic Studies of North American Halictid Bees
Principal Investigator: Taylor, John S.
Licensed Year(s): 1992
Summary: The researcher and his team will collect specimens of bees that belong to the subgenus Evylaeus (Family Halictid), which are small "ant-like" bees sometimes called "sweat bees." The researcher would like to determine how they are related to the European species, which, unlike the Evylaeus, are social in their behaviour. This study may shed some light on the evolution of social behaviour in bees....


The Biology of Predaceous Insects in the Canadian Arctic
Principal Investigator: DeBruyn, Adrian
Licensed Year(s): 1992 1991
Summary: The Researcher will investigate the biology of predaceous insects in terrestrial and freshwater habitats. An inventory of predaceous insects will be conducted through trapping and collecting. Their prey and habits will also be identified....
