Luomus Zoology n hyönteisnäytteistä on digitoitu 1 100 000/10 000 000, eli 11%. Urakka tuntuisi loputtomalta ilman pienempiä välietappeja. Kuvissa on viimeiset Steniuksen kovakuoriaiskokoelman näytteet, jotka @RepettiSonja sai tällä viikolla valmiiksi!🎉 #digitointi #hyönteiset

Edistämme tällä viikolla lepakoiden suojelua EUROBATS-sopimuksen kautta, yhdessä lukuisten kollegoiden kanssa.🦇🦇 #lepakot #luonnonsuojelu Luomus Zoology

Last day of my visit to MuséumGenève🇨🇭with Coleoptera curator Giulio Cuccodoro, arranging & packing incoming & outgoing specimen loans for phylogenetic, taxonomic & faunistics projects before return to Luomus. At least 1 likely undescribed species amongst them for further study

Osallistuin #BOUasm22 "Citizen science and birds" -konferenssiin twitter-esityksellä lintuatlaksesta. Lintuatlas on kansalaistiedettä, johon kuka tahansa voi osallistua! Ketjussa näkyy nostoja ensimmäisestä atlasvuodesta. 👇🏼 Luomus BirdLife Suomi

Bat experts out in the night! 🦇🦇 A thermal camera picture of some delegates of UNEP EUROBATS MoP9 during a bat walk. In the daylight today, discussions continue e.g. on wind turbines and bats. #bats #conservation #windenergy Luomus Ympäristöministeriö Nina Mikander

Seu Limão from Brazil visited Luomus via SYNTHESYS and identified our South American moths (Erebidae: Arctiinae). Thank you! Luomus Zoology collections at University of Helsinki gain value via research collaboration and expert work😀

These cuties are bat species protected by the UNEP EUROBATS. Resolutions were adopted in the MoP9 e.g. on bats & #windenergy and the list of priority species. Nathusius' Pipistrelle is now on the list! This bat is migratory and deserves more attention. Ympäristöministeriö Nina Mikander

Kemppilaji Trichochermes walkeri käveli 87 vuoden tauon jälkeen takaisin Suomen lajilistoille oratuomen oksaa pitkin Luonnontieteellisen museon pihalla. Kempin löysi museomestari Heidi Viljanen ja määritti projektitutkija Erkka Laine Luomus University of Helsinki

Tiesitkö, että lepakoitakin rengastetaan? Luomus koordinoi linturengastusten lisäksi lepakoiden rengastusta. Eilen kolme kiinnostunutta osallistui lepakkorengastustenttiin. Lajinmääritys museonäytteistä on tarkkaa puuhaa: tuntomerkkejä mm. korvankannessa! 🦇 #lepakot #kokoelmat

The Atlas Obscura podcast was interested in Luomus Chilean recluse #spider that is our pet since the 1970s Luomus Zoology. A bit sensationalist in the beginning, but I hope it became clear there is no concern. In any case, happy #Halloween! open.spotify.com/episode/26VrII…

Another week at Center for Evolutionary Hologenomics and not only did we manage to extract #DNA from Myotis bones but successfully construct libraries. Awesome considering how small the bones are, now we need to see how much is #bat DNA Luomus Zoology @BatLabFinland (Photo: Saxifraga-Mark Zekhuis)

Joka vuosi Luomus Zoology on korkeakouluharjoittelijoita oppimassa tutkimus- ja kokoelmatyötä. Tänä vuonna hyönteistiimissä työskenteli @LottaLei . Ohjelmaan kuului mm. DNA-eristyksiä kovakuoriaistutkimusta varten Fernando Lopes'in ohjauksessa sekä töitä kokoelmissa.

Just to clarify, the twitter accounts will merge, our collections (or staff) are not moving. The photo is from 1923 when the collections were moved to the current location. This means next year is special, follow news Luomus! 🥳
