My primary interests are macro insect & flower photography, ecology, and South American linguistics. As such my main contributions to Wikipedia and Wikimedia Commons will be the addition of images of insects and flowers, and the expansion and sourcing of pages relating to ecology and South American linguistics.
Rhagoletis tabellaria: Added information on its host plant Cornus sericea, as well as a wasp that parasitizes it, Utetes tabellariae. I plan on expanding this article more, particularly in terms of inter-species and ecological interactions. I have an image waiting to add to commons and the page that shows the insect on its host plant. I'm confident in the identification, but still waiting on confirmation by experts I have contacted.
Istocheta aldrichi: Added some specifics to what was already there on its interaction with its host insect Popillia japonica. All of the information on its bio-control purposes mentioned on its host's page should be brought over and expanded to include more data on the program's history, implementation, and efficacy. I plan on doing this unless someone beats me to it.
