For the past 2 days I have been helping 2 scientists from South Africa assemble and set up traps to catch the Sirex . It is a wasp and when they get them they will dissect the wasp to look for a parasoid worm. The Sirex is damaging their pines. The scientists names are Amy - a Masters student in genetics and Phil who has a .PHD so he's DR. Stephanie from Scion gave me some information to read about Sirex and John showed me one in the HUGE insect collection.
