What the bug! Kurioses aus der Welt der Insekten

In the organizer's words:

Deadly poison and buried corpses. What sounds like the plot for a thriller is actually happening every day in the insect world, right before our eyes. But only if you look closely. The lecture sheds light on life that is sometimes hidden and sheds light on wondrous living worlds. From beaver lice to rat tail larvae, it will be exciting.

Lecture by Dr. rer. med. Marcus Schwarz, forensic entomologist.

Event as part of the exhibition "Insect knowledge. Historical books and specimens on entomology" from May 8 to August 9, 2026 in the Bibliotheca Albertina. Monday to Wednesday from 10 am to 6 pm, Thursday to Sunday from 10 am to 9 pm, Free admission.
