🚀 Second STSM of 10kLepGenomes!
Jakub Tetla (Jagiellonian Univ., Poland) visited @jadrankarota.bsky.social (Lund, Sweden) from 24–26 Sept 2025.
The goal was to integrate museum collections with phylogenomics to study West Palearctic tiger moths.

Of course, genomes only make sense in their ecological context 🌿.
The team documented habitats in Shebenik National Park and Mali i Tatë to link environment with evolutionary history.
👉 That concludes the first STSM of #10kLepGenomes — and marks a strong start for the project!
