's career as a forest entomologist spans 45 years, commencing in 1967 with the Department of Forests in Papua New Guinea, and since 1974 with forestry in Queensland, Australia. His research has encompassed all facets of forestry, from insect pests of seeds and seedlings to pests of tree plantations, native forests, agroforestry and timber. He has worked with forest insects in more than 20 tropical and subtropical countries throughout Asia and the Pacific. He has a particular interest in invasive species and has been involved in establishing pest early warning systems in several Asia-Pacific countries. He is currently Science Manager with the Biosecurity Queensland Control Centre, Department of Agriculture, Fisheries and Forestry in Brisbane.
