Dávid Rédei
Hungarian Natural History Museum

     

     I have a broad interest in the Heteroptera. Besides descriptive taxonomy, I am interested in various topics of comparative morphology, especially the male and female genitalia. I focus primarily on the Cimicomorpha; I publish mostly on the Southeast Asian fauna. Most of my studies on Pentatomoidea are in collaboration with my friend Jing-Fu Tsai.

     I am curator of Hemiptera at the Hungarian Natural History Museum, Budapest. Currently, I am working at the Institute of Entomology, Nankai University, Tianjin, China, as part of a two-year research scholarship.
