So proud of Benoit's thesis defense today @cbgpmontpellier.bsky.social ! 😊

Thanks again to @cnmeynard.bsky.social (who did the lion's share!) & #Julien_Haran, who were fantastic as thesis co-supervisors; thanks to the jury and to everyone inside & outside the lab. who made this journey possible! 🙏

Our monograph (128 pages!) of the brood-pollinator #weevil genus #Derelomus is now out in @ejtaxonomy.bsky.social ! 😃 #OA

Huge revision work led by #Julien_Haran @cirad.bsky.social / @cbgpmontpellier.bsky.social with some #integrative_taxonomy approaches to help clarifying some species complexes!

This week, I had the honor of signing the historical #Obligation_book of the @royentsoc.bsky.social as a newly appointed Fellow of the RES

It is quite intimidating to sign a book that has been signed by the likes of Darwin, Wallace and Queen Elisabeth II !

Great venue too ! #Glasgow_City_Chambers

Really nice to be there at #Ento25 in #Glasgow ! @royentsoc.bsky.social

Fantastic plenary this morning by #Christiane_Weirauch from @ucriverside.bsky.social on the systematics and evolution of assassin and plant bug!

Will be at #Ento25 next week in #Glasgow!

I will give a talk on some overlooked #pollinators (based on results we got @cbgpmontpellier.bsky.social)

Will also be there as EIC of #Systematic_Entomology @royentsoc.bsky.social; do not hesitate to contact me if you have any questions about the journal!

Our study on the origin of the disjunct distribution of Paleotropical Eneopterinae crickets is out!
