Best practices in #taxonomy are critical for addressing the current #biodiversitycrisis. Taxonomy needs to be rebranded to the scientific community as a modern, active and important discipline with sufficient funding and taxonomic researchers. #Entomology#Zoology#Museums
Please RT! I'm looking to get short statements from queer marine scientists & biologists (& related fields) about their experiences being queer in their fields. Any level of experience or career is okay, anonymous statements are possible. DM me here on Twitter or email me!
The Taxonomic Dilemma - can we trust the taxonomists? Fascinating talk from @Exogone1 at the #IPC14 Polychaete Identification Course highlighting the need to use the correct literature for the right region and the need for more taxonomists
This year #InternationalPolychaeteDay is on June 30 @NMNH. If in DC and you'd like to meat worms, wormie scientists and fellow biodiversity nerds, please stop by the natural history museum!!
The time has arrived! The IPC14 pre-conference workshop will start tomorrow and we are ready to welcome all our participants to Stellenbosch. IPC #IPC14StellenboschSavetcon
Excited to share my first first author paper! We used a DNA taxonomy approach to examine the biodiversity, biogeography, and genetic connectivity of over 1800 polychaete specimens from the Pacific #deepsea

SOSA´s Engagement Unit is growing.
Do you love marine species as much as we do and want to share your fascination with the world? Then become a part of a new movement promoting #biodiversity#conservation!

It is great to see the conference delegates from the @PorcupineMNHS conference looking at the invasive non native species kit put together by @MolluscAnna and @8thtree. This will be a fabulous resource to help people learn more about how to Identify some of marine INNS in Wales
The non-native fan worm Bispira polyomma is beautiful but prolific and is now found in some marinas on the England south coast. One to look out for if you’re diving or surveying. See the new article here: https://t.co/qeK84E9ZcP #WormWednesday
