The Hym Course

HYM Course 2014 will be offered at Eagle Hill Institute in Steuben, Maine in August this year.

The main objective of the course is to provide participants with knowledge and experience in identifying parasitic and predatory wasps, sawflies, wood wasps, bees, and ants. We will also present information on the natural history of wasps, bees, and ants, and that information will be reinforced with fieldwork. Techniques used to collect, rear, preserve, and curate wasps, bees, and ants will be presented in a hands-on manner to allow participants to learn directly by doing.

Course Dates: 
Sunday, August 17, 2014 to Saturday, August 23, 2014
