縮こまってない大きめサイズのイボトビムシがおられたので撮らせてもらったが、寝起き感があるノソノソ具合でとても良かった。

To study how insects interact with polypore fungi over time, @dschigel used a time lapse camera alongside a digital camera and an insect flight interception trap in the field. #Brinno #Timelapsecamera #BCC300 #research

Registration for the Dead Wood Course 2026 - forma iberica - will close on 15 February. Two weeks before the deadline - and half of the places are gone, thanks to the interest from Spain, Italy, Norway, Poland, and Finland. Remining all planning to join to register on time!

Announcing Dead Wood Course 2026 – forma iberica The course will take place in Asturias in Northern Spain on (17) 18–22 May 2026, and only up to 18 participant places will be available this time. Link to expression of interest forms.gle/v8KMXQ1dvhW1BKpJA

10月の和歌山にて見つけたモンツキヒメマルトビムシ 秋はビョウタケとか小さなキノコに居ることが多い印象だけど、この時は倒木表面を忙しそうにせっせと何かを食べ歩いていた。途中、穴の中からもう一匹登場。トビムシたちは何かよく分からないものを食べて増えていき、そして食べられていく…

💚 Wetlands are some of the most productive engines of the planet’s biodiversity. 💧 An estimated 40 percent of the world’s biodiversity are found in wetlands, from inland lakes, swamps and river floodplains to coastal mangroves, coral reefs, tidal mudflats and salt marshes.

落ち葉めくりでよく見かける眼が赤いイボトビムシ トコトコと歩いておられたのを撮らせてもらったけど、途中落ち葉から生える糸がくっついてしまう。 ペタペタとしているのだろうか…イボトビムシの体表の凹凸もそういうのがベタッと全身に付きにくいように接着面積を減らすためなのかも？

Dark Taxonomy: From unknown to ready for biomonitoring in 5 steps. By describing 120 species, most species of fungus gnats routinely caught in Singaporean Malaise traps now have names. Bees, butterflies and birds, make room for your new friends. Read here: onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/…

📢 WEBINAR ALERT: The Role of Digital Twins in Environmental Protection 🌍 As #climatechange accelerates, the need for innovative solutions to protect our environment is more urgent than ever. #DigitalTwins (DTs)—advanced tools for real-time monitoring and predictive simulations—are revolutionising how we address environmental threats, from #biodiversity loss to natural disasters. Join leading experts from @interTwin_EU , @dtgeo_eu , @TerraDT_EU , #ClimateDT, and #DestinE as they explore how DTs can enhance environmental protection, disaster response, and biodiversity preservation. Discover real-world applications, current challenges, and the power of cross-collaboration in this evolving field. 🗓 Date: 27 February 2025 🕒 Time: 15:00 - 16:00 CET 🎙 Speakers: Top researchers and coordinators from major DT initiatives 📢 Interactive Poll: Engage directly with the experts Register now: tinyurl.com/3khfcf64

たまに落ち葉めくりで見つかる極小トビムシのミジントビムシの一種 大きさは0.4mmほどとオドリコトビムシの幼体くらいだが、こちらは落ち着きなく動き回るので撮影は難しい。見つける度に挑戦してたからけっこう追えるようになってきたかも… その動きと猫背なフォルムがとても良いトビムシ。

🌲 🌲 🌲 Wishing you all a joyful holiday season! This year, BioDT has been working hard to build the future of #biodiversity conservation with prototype Digital Twins (pDTs). We've been developing advanced simulations, ensuring #FAIR data resources are readily available, and harnessing the power of AI to create solutions that help us better understand and protect our planet's ecosystems. Our pDTs are tackling critical biodiversity challenges head-on, from #modelling how species respond to environmental change and exploring the complex dynamics of grasslands and forests, to assessing valuable ecosystem services and understanding the impact of invasive species. 💫 As we look ahead to 2025 – the final year of the BioDT project – we're more dedicated than ever to providing precise and reliable digital tools and actionable insights that contribute to a sustainable future. Wishing us all a year of growth and discovery from the BioDT team! 🌍

Just what we asked for on our holiday wish lists - new #eDNA datasets! 🎁🤩 🧬Sneaking into 2024, we have our first two datasets published through the #Metabarcoding Data Toolkit by @biodiversity_be! 🌊 🔗ow.ly/X1YF50Uv0ak 🔗ow.ly/90hK50Uv0aj @BiodiversityDT

Looking for reviewers before Christmas x.com/Arezurose/status/18423…

📣 Call for data papers! @TDRnews, GigaScience Press & GBIF renew their partnership for an issue in @gigabytejournal focused on publishing new datasets that present biodiversity data for research on #vectors of #humandiseases. Submit papers by 4 Apr 25! 🔗 buff.ly/3ZQDhfa
