I'm an insect ecologist with a strong interest in biodiversity, species interactions, insect-plant relationships, and am facinated by all wild ecosystems, particularly tropical rainforests. For my thesis I focused on tropical ants, but the spectrum that my research lab currently studies involves various taxa, such as dung beetles (my favorite group at the moment) and several other insect orders. Admittedly, I am not a real expert in any taxon. I greatly appreciate the enormous effort of the amazing community behind iNaturalist - ranging from trained experienced experts to young, curious, ambitious naturalists. Thank you all for making this happen!
