#Systematics

Our new paper in #Urticaceae #systematics where we resolve and redelimit a polytomy of 6 genera in the #Urticeae through a combination of #Sanger, #targetenrichment markers, morphology and geography: @KewScience @KewAmericas #PAFTOL

Our 2023 #Bee #Biogeography and #Systematics series start the year off with talks on new bee species, global bee diversity, and the origin of bees, with more each month. They are held over Zoom and are free! Visit for more information and to register.

Harpalinae, one of the largest subfamilies of beetles in the world with ~19,000 species, but not as you know it! #taxonomy #systematics #entomology #MuseumCollections

Spent the day working on photographing and preparing slides for microscopy for some cool Akanthomyces fungi infecting moths. Hopefully a very cool paper on moth parasites coming out in a few months. I was missing that type of day…. #taxonomy #systematics #cordyceps #THeLastofUs

Should we rely on journal impact factors in #systematics and #taxonomy? 🤔 Mycologist Henrik Nilsson explores this question in a @Pensoft guest blog post: 🔗

Taxonomic monographs are much more than taxonomy. New paper just published, available #OpenAccess! #systematics #botany #biodiversity

Now available open access: "An integrated approach to studying tropical plant diversity – Taxonomic monographs, herbarium specimens and the sweet potato" ⬇️⬇️ #taxonomy #plants #systematics #botany #biodiversity #sweetpotato #ipomoea

Congratulations to all of this year's Graduate Student Research Award winners! We are excited to support your outstanding research, and we look forward to learning from your discoveries! #Systematics #Phylogenetics #Taxonomy #NaturalHistoryCollections

Very proud of our new revision in @CurrentBiology splitting #Symbiodinium "clades" into different genera, an important change for coral-symbiont #taxonomy & #systematics. Also revised the molecular clock! @OSUScience @PennStateBio @RSRC_KAUST Open access:

Summer 2023 course at @BocasStation "Confusing Crustaceans: Peracarid Systematics, Collection and Preservation" - please share with anyone who might be interested :) #Crustacea #Peracarida #Systematics #Taxonomy

Here’s what happens when you take an ancestral species, scatter it all over the world and then confine them to their own geographical regions. Evolution. Isn’t life amazing? #systematics #phylogenetics

One of the great perks of being @OttawaCNC is collab work with Ales Smetana - here we establish a framework for #systematics of the largest and most familiar #rovebeetles and describe new genus from China. Paper here: #coleoptera #phylogeny #totalevidence

A tiny glittering goby from the genus Tryssogobius. This is the beautiful T. sarah, and it’s only the size of your pinky nail. #ichthyology #systematics #goby

Very excited to announce that our paper on diversification of the avian radiation Corvides was published in @systbiol today! @mjandersen43 @roszenil @carlholiveros #ornithology #evolution #systematics #phylogeny You can read the (unformatted) MS here:

Shoutout to a favourite author & editor of ours: @ant_explorer (@calacademy) who just got a #NewSpecies of army #ant 🐜from China named after himself, “for his outstanding contributions to ant #systematics”! Study: #Hymenoptera #Entomology #Taxonomy

So i'm beginning to look for postdoc positions in plant #Systematics #Conservation #Herbaria #Taxonomy #teaching with the goal of starting Fall 2022. Suggestions? #iamabotanist

#UnderTheScope 🔎 Dr. Joseph McHugh, Professor and @gamusnathist curator, specializes in #coleoptera #systematics!🪲🐞 He's the go-to guy for beetle diversity and collections. Dr. McHugh has advised over 19 students, including @NMNH's Collections Mgr. Floyd Shockley (@Beetle_Guy)
