[TheWillaWoman]

Speaker: Hayley Gillespie, UT Austin graduate student

Topic: "Texas Salamanders"

Location: Tim and Deb's house, see attachment for directions and contact information.

Speaker Info: Hayley is a graduate student studying the ecology and behavior of the endangered Barton Springs Salamander (Eurycea sosorum) that lives right here in Austin, Texas. Texas is home to many species of salamanders including the giant black & yellow tiger salamanders, two-legged Sirens, waterdogs, spotted newts, slimy salamanders and a diverse group of permanently aquatic salamanders in the genus Eurycea, all very closely related to our Barton Springs Salamander. Come and learn about their incredible biology, how they survive in all kinds of habitats, and what’s being done to conserve and protect these fascinating amphibians!

................

We meet at 7pm for food/drink and socialize until 8 pm at which time our speaker gives their presentation. After the presentation we go back to socializing. We encourage everyone to bring side dishes, deserts (chocolate!), and BYOB. Alcohol is allowed in moderation!.
