Andy Brower is a professor of biology at MTSU. He earned his PhD in ecology and evolutionary biology from Cornell University, studying the evolution of mimicry in Neotropical Heliconius butterflies. He has always had a fondness for the local lepidopteran fauna, and has been collecting moths at the porch lights of his house for several years. Our program will cover some of the highlights of local moth diversity, and we will have some lights set up in the woods and maybe some trees with bait painted on them, to see if we can observe any living specimens in the environs of the Nature Center.
