  1. 1. Debugging metabarcoding for insect biodiversity studies

    Författare :Daniel Marquina Hernández; Fredrik Ronquist; Owen Wangensteen; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; metabarcoding; insects; non-destructive; DNA extraction; Malaise trap; preservative ethanol; environmental DNA; systematisk zoologi; Systematic Zoology;

    Sammanfattning : Insects are one of the most abundant and diverse animal groups, and they include many valuable ecological indicator species, but taxonomic discovery projects and biodiversity surveys targeting this group are often challenging. While mass trapping devices allow the collection of insects in great numbers, the task of identifying the species present is a painstaking and resource-demanding process. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Charting Insect Diversity

    Författare :Dave Karlsson; Fredrik Ronquist; Torbjørn Ekrem; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; insect faunas; biological inventories; citizen science; DNA barcoding; morphotype barcoding; Systematic Zoology; zoologisk systematik och evolutionsforskning;

    Sammanfattning : Background: Despite Sweden's rich legacy in entomology, a significant portion of its insect fauna remains poorly studied. Addressing this and other biodiversity knowledge gaps, the Swedish government unveiled the Swedish Taxonomy Initiative (STI) in 2002, with the ambitious goal of documenting and scientifically describing all multicellular species in the country.

  4. 3. Phylogeny, taxonomy and species delimitation of water mites and velvet mites

    Författare :Jeanette Stålstedt; Johannes Bergsten; Fredrik Ronquist; Joanna Mąkol; Ashley Dowling; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Acariformes; Parasitengona; Hydrachnidia; Trombidia; water mites; velvet mites; taxonomy; cryptic species; species delimitation; DNA; GMYC; experimental rearing; new synonyms; distribution; phylogeny; revised classification; Systematic Zoology; zoologisk systematik och evolutionsforskning;

    Sammanfattning : This study is part of the Swedish Taxonomy Initiative (STI) - one of the most ambitious all taxa biodiversity inventories in the world. One of the pillars in STI is to support taxonomic research on the most neglected taxonomic groups with the aim to lift the level of knowledge of biodiversity in the country. LÄS MER

  5. 4. A multi-faceted approach to a "dark taxon" : The hyperdiverse and poorly known scuttle flies (Diptera: Phoridae)

    Författare :Emily Hartop; Fredrik Ronquist; Torbjørn Ekrem; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; biodiversity; taxonomy; dark taxa; Systematic Zoology; zoologisk systematik och evolutionsforskning;

    Sammanfattning : Most of the unknown animal biodiversity on earth is in groups of invertebrates that are hyperdiverse and abundant, yet poorly known (“dark taxa”). The study of these organisms requires a multi-faceted approach and methodologies designed to tackle large numbers of species and specimens. LÄS MER
