BARNES University of Arkansas, Department of Entomology, 319 Agriculture Building, Fayetteville, Arkansas 72701, USA. E-mail: [email protected] Abstract Diogmites bilobatus sp. nov. is described from museum specimens collected in the south central and southwestern United States and northern Mexico. Its close resemblance to the widespread D. angustipennis Loew is established. Diogmites grossus Bromley syn. nov., D. pulcher (Back) syn. nov., and D. symmachus Loew syn. nov. are synonymized with D. angustipennis, and lectotypes are designated for D. angustipennis and D. symmachus. Notes on morphological variation, habitat, prey, distribution, and phenology are provided for D. bilobatus sp. nov. and D. angustipennis. Key words: Brachycera, Dasypogoninae, Nearctic, new species, robber flies Introduction In the middle and western United States, some of the most common species of the robber fly genus Diogmites (Diptera: Asilidae: Dasypogoninae) can be recognized by the prominent, oblique, dark, lateral patches subtended by silver or golden pollen on abdominal tergites 2–5 (Fig. 1); the narrow and lightly infuscate wings; and usually a lack of distinct dark markings on the golden brown to dark brown scutum. When the dark abdominal patches are not connected across the surface of the tergites, the abdomen has a bright golden orange appearance. However, the patches in many specimens are connected across the tergites by diffuse brown to nearly black bands, giving the abdomen a dark disposition.

    P R O J E C T S U C C E S S 2019-2020 Impact Report Contents Introduction 2 Phases of Services 3 Wilderness Camping 7 Our Impact 10 Research Partnership 11 The Results of Our Work 12 Demographics 14 From Our Alumni - Testimonials 15 Thank You 16 Donor Partners 17 Our Beginning Every year 1.2 million students drop out of high school. In other words, every twenty-six seconds a student in America loses his or her path to a better future (Miller, 2015). By empowering students to stay in school and achieve in life, we are building a stronger America, where every person is capable of reaching his or her greatest potential. During the 2005 - 2006 school year CIS developed an initiative to bridge the high school to post- secondary education gap for CIS graduates called Project Success. For fourteen years, Project Success has served students who would otherwise have very limited knowledge of the college environment and the admissions process. Project Success strives to understand the first- generation college student, their barriers to success, the uncertainty they face and what is working in the field that propels them into marketable careers. Our Approach Through a dual approach Project Success is able to provide on-going, comprehensive campus-based one-on-one and group counseling services, which include high school, college and career counseling and an intensive summer bridge program – Life Bootcamp - for recent CIS graduates. CIS alumni programming begins at that point and includes mentoring, year round engagement, and wilderness experiences in state and national parks.

EAST TEXAS HISTORICAL ASSOCIATION 57 DEFINING THE BIG THICKET: PRELUDE TO PRESERVATION by James Cozine President Gerald Ford signed Public Law 93-439 on October 11, 1974, establishing an 84,550-acre Big Thicket National Preserve scattered over a seven-county area of Southeast Texas. The president's signature ended a forty-seven year dispute between timber firms and preservationists over the future use of that East Texas wilderness. I Part of the reason for the length of the dispute was the difficulty of defining the Big Thicket. What is the Big Thicket, and where is it located are questions which people have tried to answer for years. Indeed, without a consensus definition the timber firms, who owned much of the land slated for preservation, could argue that their land was not part of the Big Thicket and should not be included in any proposed preserve.
