Now out in Nature Ecology & Evolution: The same 20 insect families make up over 50% of species and specimens in Malaise samples; regardless of continent, climate, or habitat. Yet, most are neglected dark taxa. Time for change!

Now published: DIY microscope🔬 for insects of all sizes, even those preserved in ethanol! Designed for developing holistic biomonitoring with AI tools. Most animal species and much of animal biomass are arthropods. They need frugal identification methods!
