| Summary: | In this study, some human-oriented problems and solution proposals that insect taxonomists encounter in field studies are explained.
The problems today’s modern entomologists encounter in the collection, classification, and all other field studies of insects are human-based. Moreover, these human-induced problems fall into two groups: physical and behavioral. In other words, it is necessary not to see the human footprint only as a biological and ecological diversity. In addition, the human factor also complicates the work of entomologists in terms of sensory, perceptual, and behavioral aspects. |
