Let’s help @Formicadri! this 🏷 associated w/ ant spcmns (Polyrhachis) in the phyletisches museum Jena, collected by J. Harms in 1929. Where is the location- could it say "fusa" (is this a place?)? This sample might be from SE Asia as it was in a container w/ vials from Indonesia

@EntoTranslator Hey ento twitter. Quick question: are Lao-Kay, Lào Cai, and Tonkin all in the same province in Vietnam? No picture just different names in some taxonomic literature for the same species.

Hey @EntoTranslator You'll be hearing a lot from me soon, we're cleaning some of the label "dregs" with some fun handwriting. This one might be from Asia and the first line is the species name, Polycaena timur.

Hey all! Let’s help @rachl_hawk solve this mystery label! It belongs to a Satyrus ferula ferula specimen, but she can't figure out the third word. It says "France Savoie / [illegible] 20.7.25"

Anyone want to guess this? Looks like 'Brooth Wood' but I can't find any such place. South be in Southern England. From Stenurella nigra (Cerambycidae) from A A Allen's collection
