會員們:

本會非常有幸能夠邀請到香港昆蟲學會創會及現任會長饒戈先生，在下述時間地點，為會員們舉辦一次可能在本會尚未聽過、由一名昆蟲學專家的角度，來看樹木与昆蟲之間的關係。樹木與昆蟲過億年來，其實都存在互動關係。在某些生態動圈裡，沒有了昆蟲就不會有樹木的存在；沒有了樹木，昆蟲也沒有了食物居所。

饒戈先生在行內久負盛名，本會可能都不須要多作介紹，對他尚未了解的會員，請看下面的講者履歷，都可以清楚明白了。本會相信這次講座將會非常踴躍，一席難求，為免向隅，敬請會員們及早報名，以免向隅。

本會舉行學術講座，都以增進行內實用知識為主要目的，從不嘩眾取寵，盲目崇洋，引入一些雙腳離地、風馬牛不相及好看不好用的怪論，這是CAA的教育態度。本會多年來與國際交流，積極參加國際會議，懂得如何把最好最合適的知識帶回給會員，能夠分辨篩選講者資格，從不唯洋是道、崇洋慕洋，這乃是本會舉辦教育訓練的特色也。

講座內容 (由講者提供)：

Topic: “Insects Closely related to Tree Planting in Hong Kong” – Concepts, Identification and Management

1. Concepts of Tree/Insects/Human relations:
Living organism, no matter Trees, insects or us as human being, are all inter-related or even dependent to each other in the whole balanced ecosystem. Insects may harm trees or human, but in turn they are actually essential to the survival of trees and human. How the balanced ecosystem works, is essential for us to understand how trees & insects survive around our environment.

2. Basic insect morphology, classification and biology:
Insects, as the most diverse and numerous living creatures in the world, show many extraordinary adaptations in their bodies to survive in different environment. Knowing the basic biology of insects is useful for understanding them during filed observation.

3. Phloem-sucking Insects:
Many insects on trees suck the nutrient from phloem of trunk, branch, root, twigs or leaves. They have specialized sucking mouth part to facilitate the process. Hemiptera (e.g. bugs, cicadas) is example of these group of insect.

4. Leaf-eating Insects
As leaves are the fresh part of a tree in every growing season, they are good food source for many insects with chewing mouth part. Caterpillar of Lepidoptera (e.g. moths and butterflies) is a good example, with some of these species showing themselves to be host-specific.

5. Wood-Borers
Larvae of many Coleoptera (e.g. Long-horned Beetle and Jewel Beetle) are significant wood-borers causing structural damage in a lot of trees in many countries.

6. Root-eating Insects
Some insects live in soil to consume roots of a tree as food source, and they are difficult to find during visual inspection. Symptom on foliage is usually the first sign of their presence.

7. Management
Before trying to manage insects during tree planting, knowing their biology, life cycle and their relationship with the concerned trees are very important. Misuse of pesticide not only complicates the problem, it can further deteriorate the situation.
