El hallazgo ha sido posible gracias al fósil de Ixalerpeton, un pariente cercano de los pterosaurios que vivió hace 233 millones de años, cuyo cerebro mostraba una visión mejorada pero carecía de otros aspectos clave para el vuelo. www.mncn.csic.es/es/Comunicac...

(HILO) Describen cómo evolucionaron los primeros vertebrados capaces de alzar el vuelo, los pterosaurios. Demuestran que su evolución cerebral fue diferente a la de las aves y también que para volar no hace falta un cerebro muy grande.👇 @csic.es www.mncn.csic.es/es/Comunicac...

Manual coordination of collections is hindering the efforts of the scientific community. To overcome this, @dissco.bsky.social proposes AI-based automation to expand access, annotate data, and integrate collections across institutions. Watch this demo to learn more www.dissco.eu/applications...

🐝 Pollinators are in decline.

The EU’s new EU PoMS sets a unified, science-based way to monitor them.

🎯 CETAF helped shape the methodology, ensuring taxonomic expertise is central to accurate pollinator monitoring.

🇪🇺These projects help establish open access to collections data, design and test novel AI and molecular tools, test training frameworks, and involve citizen scientists in monitoring biodiversity hotspots. This community-based perspective is fundamental to the entire ethos of TETTRIs. #Taxonomy

"Talking about #biodiversity without #taxonomy is like trying to build a puzzle without the pieces"

Kate Evans works at the Gothenburg Global Biodiversity Centre. In TETTRIs, she is leading the task of writing a blueprint for building taxonomic capacity.

Sergio now presents Task 4: Mapping Spanish pollinator collections.

The aim of this task was to find other public entomological collections in Spain with which to establish links and which could provide more material for the reference collection 🐝🪰🦋.

Now, Arturo gives us a “master class” on analyzing gaps in the reference collection 📊🔎.

Which species are unique to each institution? Which ones are common to all INC-STEP partners? Which ones are missing? 🤔

As NHCs-based data is inherently patchy, so it is essential to identify our geographical 🌍, taxonomic 🧬 and phenological 📅 gaps in order to fill them!

Its material has been kept in the main building of the university, but soon it will be part of a brand new museum! 🏦

Also coming soon, as part of #INCSTEP, the UNAV's will conduct a gap analysis of our reference collection! To relveal our 'knowns' and 'unknowns' 🤔
