Meet the new Editor-in-Chief of The Canadian Entomologist

Dr. Kevin Floate | 6 May 2015

My name is Kevin Floate.  Back in 1985, I became a member of the Entomological Society of Canada (ESC) and found it to be a warm and supportive organization.  I’ve since undertaken a number of roles, because I enjoy a challenge, but also because I believe that it is important to give back to the Society and the scientific discipline that has given me so much to me during my career.  I have served on the Society’s Governing Board and I have Chaired the Publication Committee and what is now the Marketing and Fund-raising Committee.  I am a past-Editor of the ESC Bulletin and have been a Subject Editor for The Canadian Entomologist (TCE) since 2002.  In September of last year, I embarked on my most challenging role thus far, that of Editor-in-Chief (EiC) for TCE.…

Chris Buddle | 3 Sep 2013

Canadian amber reveals bizarre ants from the Cretaceous – Editor’s Pick for TCE 145(4) | ESC-SEC Blog.

Mark Costello | 7 Aug 2013
