Entomological collections are crucial for research in taxonomy and classification of insects, as they allow experts to study and compare collection specimens. These collections serve not only taxonomists but also specialists from other fields to compare and identify hard-to-identify individuals.
Type specimens are of particular importance, as they serve as reference individuals for the description and assignment of species. These unique and carefully preserved specimens represent the most valuable part of the collections, with type specimens of several species present in our collections.
