INTRODUCTION This report summarizes the activity of the Identification Laboratory at Virginia Tech for 1987. The laboratory is located in 312 Price Hall. It is managed by Eric Day, Lab Specialist, F. William Ravlin, and John A Weidhaas, Extension Entomologists, Department of Entomology. Specimens are identified and recorded in the lab, then sent to Extension Entomologists who handle particular commodity groups for control recommendations and additional comments. All specimen data are entered into the Insect I. D. Lab computer data base on the Virginia Tech mainframe computer. The data base greatly facilitates sorting and storage of the information. Sue Rutherford is responsible for all data base management. Some of the records were sent via microcomputer to the Cooperative National Plant Pest Survey and Detection Program (USDA, APIIlS, PPQ). We at Virginia Tech acknowledge support provided by this program. Starting in 1987 the Insect I.D. Lab computer data base became available for access by county agents to check on samples being processed. Access to this program is provided through the Extension network (XNET). The data base was queried 198 times in 1987. Agents wishing to access the data base should first log on to the mainframe computer.

Once logged on type CLINIC and press the return key. The program then asks a series of questions to select the proper data set for your search and compose the actual search query. This program assists agents in making identifications in their offices based on previous samples and it is also helpful in obtaining usage counts for annual VEMIS reports. A manual detailing this program was sent out to all county offices; additional copies are available from the Insect Identification Laboratory and in the October 1987 issue of the Plant Protection Newsletter (Vol. 7, No. 10). In order to facilitate mailing and insect damaged specimens to the lab, local offices of the Cooperative Extension Service in Virginia are provided with Insect Identification and Diagnosis Request forms (form 444-113), alcohol vials, and mailing tubes. Specimens may also be brought directly to the lab or mailed to: Insect Identification Laboratory Extension Entomology 312 Price Hall VPl&SU Blacksburg, VA 24061-5796 (703) 961-4899 SCATS 430-4899

Whenever possible insects are identified to the species level, but common names are used where possible because of their wide recognition. A total of 1,731 requests were received in 1987. Eighty-six percent were forwarded by Extension Agents; the rest were brought or sent in directly by the general public. Identification requests from homeowners accounted for 62% of the total, 13% were from commercial growers and urban pest control operators, and 25% were from medical doctors, university faculty and staff, and unspecified sources. Control recommendations were requested in 78% of the cases, 5% requested identification only, and 16% did not specify one or the other. 4
