Happy to share my first publication on a non-social insect: Mantids! Here we show the first species list of mantids in the Comoé Nationalpark. We found a total of 35 species, with many occuring far more north than expected and 2 being described for the first time in Ivory Coast!

After ~7 yr of work, it's finally out! We present a molecular phylogeny of butterflies sampling >90% of genera & >2000 spp. Butterflies emerged ~100 million yr ago in North America and first fed on legumes. Thanks to all 87 co-authors from 28 countries! rdcu.be/dcaVU

This event might also serve as a springboard to create a Blattodea Research Society to synergize Blattodea research in all fields and hopefully make #cockroaches and #termites the model system of the 21st century!!!
