Support is urgently requested to help keep Kew Herbarium at Kew.
The Director and Trustees intend to move the #Herbarium over an hour away from its current location at the heart of Kew.
Separating the herbarium from the gardens, library, and laboratories will cripple the ongoing taxonomic work at a time when we are facing a dire biodiversity crisis.

Introducing 2 new species, Melanascoma panespora and Pleurothecium brunius, a new genus, Melanascoma, and the new family Melanascomaceae. This is the first in a series of 5 papers (hopefully) this year on freshwater fungi in Australia. #fungi #taxonomy #systematics #phylogenetics https://www.ingentaconnect.com/.../content-f7_fuse_vol11...#

I learned a LOT of #botany, #systematics, #dendrology, and #ecology through following certain subreddits. They were my safe anti-anxiety practice during the pandemic when so much was unknown. Pouring myself into learning about plant families, morphology syntax, and digging into dichotomous keys kept me level. My use case is fringe, but there are so many support communities on the verge of collapse due to silicon valley bro greed.
Solidarity with everyone participating in the protest!

Anyone got institutional access to the new Sharma paper? 🥺 https://academic.oup.com/icb/advance-article-abstract/doi/10.1093/icb/icad050/7188295

Taxonomists: I just asked ChatGPT to write a systematic description of the trilobite Flexicalymene meeki. It failed.
We're safe, for now . . .

In November, Ralf Werneburg and Jörg Schneider published a new genus and species of notostracan-like crustacean from the late Carboniferous of Germany: Thuringiops nephroides. They rightfully assessed that it probably belongs somewhere on the stem to the kazacharthran lineage (the monophyly of that is another issue entirely). #crustacea #arthropoda #branchiopoda #notostraca #paleontology #palaeontology #newspecies #systematics #germany #carboniferous

The monophyly of Kazacharthra is far from satisfactorily demonstrated, in my opinion. Really, the only feature that sort of holds them together is the long telson (not anal plate), but this is not preserved in most fossils. #phylogeny #systematics

This new #wasp #systematics paper has both #title and #epigraph from #MobyDick - "From Hell's Heart I Stab at Thee". It's a huge piece of work and clearly the family Pteromalidae has been the authors' great white whale! https://jhr.pensoft.net/article/94263/

#introduction
Newly arrived on Mastodon!
I research #biodiversity of land & freshwater #snails, living and fossil, from around the world. I'm interested in #taxonomy, #systematics, #phylogenetics, and #biogeography.
I sometimes study #birds too just to mix things up.
More importantly, I'm one of the founders (and current editor-in-chief) of the Journal of Geek Studies.
Make sure to visit our website https://jgeekstudies.org/ and read through all the fantastic #geekstudies articles. :mastoread:

They are meiofaunal. They don't assault us relentlessly with their presence. We have to specifically look fro them (sifting through lots of mud in the process). As a result, we only know of about 12 species in 5 genera. There are likely oodles more out there. There is a lot we don't know about them--probably more than we DO know about them. #taxonomy #systematics

Late Paleozoic clam shrimp, in general, tend to be rather poorly preserved--limiting the number of useful characters we can retrieve.

One of the most entertaining and/or frustrating steps when doing phylogenetic analyzes is selecting the outgroup (or outgroups) and decide if a character is plesiomorphic or apomorphic. And if you have multi-estate characters, oh boy... 😫 🤣 .
