I am very pleased to present our museomics article ‘Minimally destructive hDNA extraction method for retrospective genetics of pinned historical Lepidoptera specimens’. We show that it is possible to sequence a single historical butterfly leg. @Dr_Zaiss

The open access book on evidence use and decision making should be out in late November. Has a great global team of authors. Hope it can be included as reading material in courses and becomes recommended reading in organisations. bit.ly/3TqteY9
