Abstract/Contents: | Announces the death of Haruo Tashiro, Cornell University Professor Emeritus in the Department of Entomology at the New York State Agricultural Experiment Station, on December 8, 2009. Details Tashiro's career history, reporting that "throughout his active scientific career...[he] produced numerous publications on the biology, ecology, and management of insects affecting horticultural crops and turfgrass." Notes that "his detailed drawings of anatomical features of insects, his skill in cartography, and his photos grace the pages of his books." Mentions Tashiro's family life, focusing on his wife, Hatsue Morimitsu. States that "rumor has it that he courted her by bringing gifts of vegetables from his family's farm." Concludes that "Tashiro will be remembered as a gentleman, excellent scientist, and an inspiration to his family and friends." |
