In April 2003 the Survey’s Scientific Committee reviewed all Survey projects (see Review of scientific priorities, Newsletter of the Biological Survey 2003, 22(2): 53-54). Based on that review, the web page on Scientific Projects has been updated to reflect the current scientific priorities. See http://www.biology.ualberta.ca/bsc/english/scientificprojects.htm for an introduction to:
Two projects have become more active recently and each now has its own section on the website. Insects of Newfoundland and Labrador has a description of the project as well as a list of the number of known species from each insect family in Newfoundland and Labrador. In the future we hope to enlarge this section with more content which may include keys for testing, a bibliography of NF/LB entomology, a database of known species from the province, and historical information.See http://www.biology.ualberta.ca/bsc/english/nfld.htm The Forest arthropods page also has a description of the project’s goals and objectives. A new survey of active forest arthropod biodiversity projects in Canada has been initiated and a questionnaire is available here. See http://www.biology.ualberta.ca/bsc/english/forests.htm
