Proposal for the creation of a National Policy for Scientific Biological Collections in Brazil
Dear colleagues, with great enthusiasm, we inform you that, in conjunction with the Brazilian Societies of Zoology, Botany, and Microbiology, Bill No. 1993/2024 has been filed in the Senate. This bill, which proposes the creation of the National Policy for Scientific Biological Collections in Brazil, is crucial to strengthening the country's research and conservation infrastructure.
It seeks to strengthen, organize, and manage biological collections and facilitate access to essential data and information. We invite everyone to participate in this process actively. You can vote 'YES' to speed up the processing of this bill by accessing the Senate website.

The identification of natural enemies is essential for successful pest management. The Coleoptera Research Laboratory - LAPCOL has developed studies with insects of agricultural interest in the western region of Paraná, consequently feeding the Entomological Collection of the Palotina Sector - CESP.
The video aims to introduce the techniques for assembling ladybugs from a study of the population fluctuation of Coccinellidae (Insecta: Coleoptera) in an orchard.

Biological Collections
Biological collections preserve the history of our biodiversity, helping us to evaluate its distribution in time and space. It is in these spaces that researchers and environmental service providers can consult and study the collected materials, helping the country to responsibly appropriate its natural resources. Collections are important for various areas of knowledge, such as biochemistry, genetics, evolution, geology, biogeography, ecology, conservation and management of natural resources, climatology, medicine, biotechnology, toxicology, legislation, among others.
