Marcos Roca-Cusachs
Chungnam National University,
Daejeon, South Korea
I am currently a Ph.D.
candidate at the Laboratory of Systematic Entomology in the Department of
Applied Biology at Chungnam National University (South Korea) under the
supervision of Professor Sunghoon Jung. My research is presently focused
on the taxonomy, phylogeny, and biogeography of Pentatomidae (Insecta:
Hemiptera: Heteroptera)
In addition, I am
collaborating with the
Department of Evolutive Biology, Ecology and Environmental Sciences, and the
Animal Biodiversity Resource Center, at the Faculty of Biology of the University
of Barcelona, contibuting to the faunistics, distributional records, and
catalogues of the true bugs, with a focus on the superfamily Pentatomoidea, from
the Iberico-Macaronesian Region and the Korean Peninsula.
