7/14/2022: A quick trip to the Appalachians

This weekend I will be heading to the lovely state of Tennessee to visit a long-time friend, pick up some very special chickens, and do a bit of summertime bugging far outside my usual collecting zones.

Some targets include Dynastes tityus, Lucanus elaphus, and various Sigmora/Apheloria sp., though as is usual on these trips there will definitely be unexpected things of interest popping up.

Be sure to check the Collecting Trip Finds and Wild-Caught Availability page next week if you’re interested in anything from this unique region.
