#TETTRIsEU #NameItToSaveIt🔬📚📍
After all the hard work, we can finally report some preliminary but promising results from the #INCSTEP reference collection!
Starting today, we will be revealing some of them over the next few weeks. Let's get started with #Xylocopa! 📡🐝

The focus this year was on #pollinators! 🪰🐝🦋
Our initiative presented two virtual posters and two oral contributions! 🎓

It has been a very productive day, and we are very satisfied with the results. We leave with the hope of continuing to collaborate 🤝🏻 and making this pilot project something even bigger 🔝.
Result: Success! ✅

It was focus in #pollinators conservation to foster coneections and raise awareness of #TETTRIsEU and #INCSTEP 🐝
#taxonomy #biodiversity
Opening words from Domingo Marquina (UCM), Isabel Rey (MNCN-CSIC) and Rafael Zardoya (MNCN-CSIC) 🗣️
The focus is on #pollinator declines 📉 and the importance of collaborative projects like #INCSTEP in addressing them! 🐝🪰🦋
#NHMs and reference collections are key to monitoring them!

The most vital data for specimens in NHCs are the PLACE (where) and YEAR (when) of collection. These provide us with spatial and temporal distribution information needed for biodiversity studies!

The #Bombus genus is charismatic yet under threat, so taxonomic support is vital! #NameItToSaveIt
Take a look at our brief report below 📊, as well as the presentation we created for this group some time ago. ⤵️

The information contained in NHCs has remained hidden from the general public for decades. But thanks to communications technology, collection data can now be shared worldwide 🌍🔄!

Among the samples #NHCs hold, type specimens stand out for their important role: setting the base for species delimitation. 🧩
They are usually highlighted with red labels! 🔴🏷️

This time, we're looking at a butterfly family that is more taxonomically challenging: the #Hesperiidae family! 🦋
Are you ready for the big numbers? 📊 #INCSTEP
In case you don't know them ℹ️⤵️

Cada vez hay menos expertos en clasificar e identificar nuevas especies, y muchos de los que quedan están cerca de jubilarse.
Sigue leyendo para entender por qué esta crisis pone en riesgo la biodiversidad.

🪰This recently described hoverfly species (subfamily Eristalinae) likes to bask on rocky outcrops — hence its Latin name!

Hoy se celebra el #DiamundialdelasAbejas
... esas abejas melíferas que son "el ser vivo más importante" porque son "las polinizadoras" de las plantas,
... esas abejas "en peligro de extinción" que, si desaparecieran, "a los humanos nos quedarían 4 años de vida".
¿Y SI TODO ESO FUERA FALSO? 😜🤓
