Advancing Entomology in Mongolia

Welcome to the BioMongol Foundation:
Preserving Biodiversity in Mongolia Through Entomological Research

Exploring and monitoring Mongolia’s insect world
At the BioMongol Foundation, our primary mission is to study the entomological biodiversity in Mongolia. We are dedicated to supporting insect-collecting expeditions, promoting local entomology, and facilitating the publication of research findings from Mongolia’s diverse ecosystems.

Our Core Objectives:

Empowering Research Across Mongolia:
The BioMongol Foundation is committed to sharing entomological research conducted throughout Mongolia. We serve as a vital platform for scientists, enthusiasts, and explorers keen to learn about Mongolian insects.

Preserving Mongolia’s Natural Treasures:
We are committed to conserving Mongolia’s precious natural landscapes. By studying the habitats of insects, we contribute to the protection of Mongolia’s unique ecosystems.

Cultivating Collaboration with Mongolian Entomologists:
The BioMongol Foundation actively fosters collaboration and provides support to Mongolian entomology researchers. Our goal is to strengthen the local scientific community and facilitate knowledge exchange.

Are you a taxonomist, interested in Mongolian fauna?
You can collaborate in our research!
We welcome specialists in many taxa, to help identify and publish on insects collected in Mongolia. Much of the collected material is coming from malaise traps, stored in 70% ethanol. Other material is collected eg. by means of pan traps, sieving, hand netting.
