A decade of beetle hunting in Cuba is only the beginning for Robert Anderson’s quest to map out as much as he can of the diversity of the Earth’s most successful animals on the largest Caribbean island.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Summary:<\/u><\/strong>  During May of 2022 Robert Anderson and Andrew Smith had the opportunity to sample beetles in western Cuba. This was Robert’s fourth and Andrew\u2019s second trip. This talk will give a history of their previous trips as well as a summary of this trip with numerous images from the field as well as photos of beetles. As the largest and one of the most topographically complex islands in the West Indies, Cuba is an exceptionally interesting but very much under-sampled country. Many more species of beetles are expected to occur there than are currently known.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Difficulties in studying Cuban beetles are discussed as is the need for strong within country collaboration from Cuban scientists. A brief history of the study of beetles in Cuba is also presented.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
