Fang-Shuo Hu / 胡芳碩 Natural History Museum of Denmark, University of Copenhagen, Denmark I co-founded the project with Martin in 2019, and help to coordinate it until now, despite I am now studying my PhD in Europe. In fact, my main taxonomic group, the rove beetles (Staphylinidae) is the most species-diverse group in leaf litter! I am mainly responsible for coordinating the taxonomic work on various groups, communication with European experts, and when I visit Taiwan time to time, also for a bit of collecting.

Bin-Hong Ho / 何彬宏 National Museum of Natural History, Taichung, Taiwan I joint the project soon after its start, and since then help to coordinate it. I am mainly helping with collecting the samples and identifying the beetles. My main taxonomic group are scarab beetles, some of which are also inhabiting leaf litter. But I am interested in all groups of beetles, especially tiny and overlooked ones, many of which are found in leaf litter. You can contact me at binhongho0505@smail.nchu.edu.tw.
