May Symposium Honors the Memory of Monte Lloyd

By Miriam Kritzer Van Zant

EBL was saddened by the passing of Dr. Monte Lloyd, Professor Emeritus in the Department of Ecology and Evolution at the University of Chicago (UC). Dr. Lloyd is a former editor of the journal Ecology. His interests in cicadias and later in zebra mussels qualify him as an economic biologist. He was a friend to biologists of all stripes and supported the efforts of the Committee for the National Institutes of the Environment, as did many members of the Society for Economic Botany (SEB). He will be sorely missed both personally and professionally. A symposium is to be held in his honor on May 13, 2001 at UC Chris Simon at the University of Connecticut is the main contact person for the symposium.
