Why have you become a Myrmecologist?:When I was a child I started to look at the ants, up to now I haven't stopped loving them!
Personal comments:I like to exchange South East Asian ant species; also I'm able to work on undetermined ant collections of the region. I'm very interestet to meet colleagues for collection trips and studies in South East Asia.
