Tiffany Ki, Henslow Research Fellow at Darwin College, will give an overview of her recent research where she explored how incorporating historic data from museum collections changes our understanding of tropical biodiversity change. Focussing on the butterflies of Sulawesi (Indonesia), she brings together specimens collected by Ida Pfeiffer and Alfred Russell Wallace in the 1850s to more modern records from iNaturalist to examine long-term tropical butterfly biodiversity change.
