🦟 #Mosquitoes arrive in #Iceland 🇮🇸
"Three Culiseta annulata mosquitoes were found in Kjós in recent days. This has been confirmed by the Icelandic Institute of Natural History. It is the first time that mosquitoes have been discovered on Icelandic soil."

It was a pleasure to spend the last year and a half working in the Applied Animal Ecology group at Universität Innsbruck. I will definitely miss everyone a lot. Thank you so much for having me 😊❤️
👏 Wishing a fond farewell to Thomas Curran!
Thomas has developed molecular approaches to assess arthropod & plant diversity in grasslands from eDNA as part of the GeMonA+ project. 🦗🌱
Best of luck in your new lecturer position at South East Technological University, Waterford!
