Biology and Evolution of Symbiosis (BESymb)

🖍️ Cartoons

One of the main features here (for now…) are the aphid cartoons. These have been done by the talented scientist/artist/science communicator Jorge Mariano Collantes Alegre (@MarianoCollante, AKA #aphidCartoonGuy). If you like them and are in the need of some cartoons/drawings/sketches, he’s your guy. He can draw anything (…I think). For the time being, these cartoons are heavily biased (in terms of diversity) to Lachninae aphids, particularly Cinara.
