photo of James Evenden in front of the field station in Coeur d'Alene, ID

James C. Evenden in front of the building in which the Coeur d'Alene Forest Insect Field Station was located during 1919 - 1923. In 1915, Evenden was considering other options but was persuaded by A.D. Hopkins to remain with the Bureau of Entomology by allowing him to establish a substation there, independent of Joseph Brunner who was located at Missoula, Montana. After Brunner had a falling-out with Hopkins, he was separated from federal service in 1917 and forest insect investigations in the northern Rocky Mountains were centered at the Coeur d'Alene laboratory until it was closed in 1955 and its personnel transferred to Missoula, Montana.
