Dr. Trevor Hawkeswood.

 

I was born on 10 September 1956 in Brisbane, Queensland, Australia. Since an early age, I have been interested in the wonders of nature. Over the past thirty years I have published 3 books and almost 300 scientific papers and other articles. I have visited the following countries: Papua New Guinea, Thailand, Malaysia, Singapore, Indonesia, Uzbekistan, Russia, the United States of America, Germany, and Austria. My main areas of research included the following: plant taxonomy and ecology, especially of endangered species; insect plant relationships, especially those dealing with beetles (Coleoptera); beetle taxonomy and ecology of jewel beetles (Buprestidae), longicorn beetles (Cerambycidae) and leaf beetles (Chrysomelidae).

Calodema is the name of my natural history journal which publishes research dealing with the animals and plants of the Australian region and the Pacific, but I have also recently extended this range to South America. Calodema is also the name of the genus of jewel beetle (family Buprestidae) which is tropical in distribution and comprises some of the most beautiful insects in the world.
