Personnel of Intermountain Station, Division of Forest Insect Research, at staff meeting, Missoula, MT, May 3-5, 1965. Front row from left: David G. Fellin, Charles A. Wellner, Donald E. Parker, Walter E. Cole. Back row: Richard F. Schmitz, Robert E. Denton, Malcolm M. Furniss, Richard I. Washburn, Phillip C. Johnson. In 1961, the designation, "Forest Insect Laboratory" was replaced by the "Division of Forest Insect Research" headed by a Division Chief (Parker at Ogden) and Research Work Units headed by a Project Leader (Johnson at Missoula). At the time of this photo, still more reorganization had occurred. Forest Insect research was now grouped with other disciplines under an Assistant Station Director(Wellner at Ogden). Parker retired soon after. Furniss retired in 1982, ending the continuous residence of a USDA research forest entomologist in Idaho since the Coeur d'Alene Lab was established in 1919. Fellin retired 1986, ending the residence of such personnel in Montana since Josef Brunner was hired in 1909. (Furniss 2007A, Fig. 25) The order of people in the caption of the published figure was reversed and the wrong year shown.
