John Moser’s search for small and “mitey” things

Informally Refereed

Abstract

In the basement of the Alexandria Forestry Center in Pineville works a scientist who many consider eccentric and few understand what he does, but most know that he works every work day and most weekends as a volunteer even though he retired from the Forest Service's Southern Research Station for nearly 25 years. The scientist, John Moser, has taken a path less traveled. Few know that Moser has published in sciences' most prestigious journals, has frequent international visitors, and has 20 species of insects named in his honor.
