Robert Cannings

Dr. Robert Cannings is Curator Emeritus of Entomology at the Royal British Columbia Museum (RBCM) in Victoria, BC. He’s been crazy about insects since he was a kid. Although he’s studied many kinds of insects, his favourites are dragonflies and robber flies, and he has written several books on them. Before joining the RBCM in 1980, Rob was a biologist for BC Parks and a lecturer and museum curator at the University of BC.
