Better-connected data means research findings can be discovered, reused, and combined more effectively across disciplines. → doi.org/10.1093/data... 2/3

Accurate taxonomy is the foundation of biodiversity research, conservation, and species monitoring, especially in regions undergoing rapid environmental change. → doi.org/10.3897/dez.... 2/3

Taxonomy continues to reveal hidden diversity. The discovery of four new Tetraserica species from China and Vietnam shows how careful revisionary work helps refine our understanding of species richness and distribution. #LIBresearch

#FunFact Many beetle species are so similar in appearance that distinguishing them requires examining tiny anatomical details under a microscope. 3/3

#FunFact The name “Rosetta” refers to the Rosetta Stone, which helped decode ancient Egyptian writing by linking different representations of the same information. 3/3

Museum collections are more than archives: They are active research infrastructure. Great to see over 10,000 Cumacea type specimens from the Hamburg collection documented and made more accessible for future biodiversity research. #LIBresearch

How much biodiversity is still waiting to be discovered? A taxonomic revision of Southeast Asian scarab beetles revealed previously unrecognized diversity, including several species new to science hidden within museum collections and field material. #LIBresearch © Botjes et al., CC BY 4.0 1/3

Scientific knowledge is only as useful as it is shareable. Rosetta Statements provide a new way to make research data both human-readable and machine-actionable, helping bridge the gap between scientists, databases, and knowledge graphs. #LIBresearch © Vogt et al., CC BY 1/3
