Dr. Michael Raupach is the Head of Section Hemiptera at the Zoological State Collection Munich (ZSM) within the Bavarian State Natural Science Collections (SNSB) . His research integrates molecular techniques with traditional taxonomy to address systematics, biodiversity assessment, and phylogenetic relationships in Hemiptera and other arthropod groups. Key affiliations: ZSM, SNSB, German Research Foundation (DFG) projects Primary roles: Section Head, Researcher, Scientific Editor Dr. Raupach specializes in DNA barcoding and phylogenetic analysis of marine and terrestrial invertebrates, particularly Carabidae beetles , Isopoda crustaceans , and Hemiptera bugs . His work reveals cryptic species , glacial refugia , and deep-sea colonization patterns . His publications demonstrate expertise in mitogenome phylogeny , species delineation , and bioinformatic approaches to biodiversity. Collaborations span Antarctic marine ecology , German freshwater arthropods , and global crustacean systematics . Scientific Awards Recipient of the Order of Merit of the Federal Republic of Germany Leadership in national DNA barcoding initiatives Dr. Raupach actively contributes to peer-reviewed journals , scientific conferences , and public biodiversity education . His work bridges morphological taxonomy with next-generation sequencing to resolve long-standing classification challenges.
