About the project
Her research project is a comprehensive study of insect biodiversity in Mongolia's Altai Preserve in the Altai mountain range, one of the last remaining unexplored areas of the world. Mountain mosaic habitats often serve as islands, home to high numbers of endemic and unique species. Little taxonomic research of any kind has been attempted in the preserve. The project will assess the general biodiversity of species in the region, as well as to uncover and identify the novel and rare insect species endemic to this habitat. Community workshops will also be organized to sensitize the local populace to the significance of these environments.
