[Taxacom] DNA-grade Coccinellidae

[Adam.Slipinski at csiro.au]

Hi,

we are in the middle of large project on molecular phylogeny of Coccinellidae (ladybird beetles) and are looking for DNA grade material, especially from tropical Africa, New Guinea, Sulawesi and Borneo. Any help with the material or contact to people that may go to these places for collecting trips in next 6-12 months would be appreciated.

Cheers,

Adam
