Second Saturday at Hagerman True Bugs with Loriann Garcia
Did you know that all bugs are insects, but not all insects are bugs? The “true bugs” the insect order Hemiptera is one of the most diverse insects groups, with over 85,000 known species. They range from the tiny garden enemies, the aphids–to the giant predators, the giant water bugs— to insects of our nightmares, the bed bugs. Come learn about the diversity and ecology of Hemiptera and its roles in natural ecosystems!
Dr. Loriann Garcia is an Associate Professor of Biology at Austin College. She received her B.A. at Lynchburg College and her Ph.D. at Texas A&M University.
