Research

The CUIC is utilized worldwide as a resource for systematic  and applied entomology. We are cited for the loan of specimens, as well as for serving as a repository for voucher specimens.  Below we list the over 170 scientific papers citing our collection over the past five years. The initial list was compiled from Google Scholar by Aubree Keurajian, with edits and updates provided by the curators.
