Fred McDonald
University of Queensland, Australia

I have recently retired from the University of Sydney and have moved to Brisbane. I am currently working part time in the Insect Collection of The University of Queensland. I am still working on the Pentatomoidea and am currently looking at the genera in the tribe Antestiini. I am also working on the genus Oncocoris as there are a number of new species from Western Australia and Queensland.
