Glad to see this out. Great work team and well led by @roboyd91. Fingers crossed this approach becomes widely adopted in biodiversity research. It’s about time we caught up with the risk-of-bias assessments seen in other areas of research. @UK_CEH @DRUID_Project @BESMacroecol

In 2021, using molecular data and several #fossil taxa, Kohli et al found that #Odonata and extinct relatives date back to Permian period ~ 250 million years ago. The modern day #dragonflies and #damselflies originated in Triassic. Read more -> tinyurl.com/2s33cync #Scicomm

The Red-shanked carder bee (Bombus ruderarius) has an orangey-red tail & red hairs on its hind legs! ❤ This species has suffered a drastic decline & is now one of the UK's rarest bumblebees. Found mainly in south & central England, south Wales & the Inner Hebrides. #BeeAdvent

Scientists at Lund University have discovered that it's possible to detect insect DNA in the air! This offers scope for exploring a whole new way to monitor terrestrial biodiversity. Find out more by visiting @Latrunculia's online poster at #EAB2021.
