The project focuses on Dorynotini, a Neotropical tribe of tortoise beetles, to explore trait evolution, including antipredator traits, in relation to shifts between savanna/dry forest and tropical rainforest biomes. Moreover, the project seeks to understand the tribe’s spatiotemporal evolution, more specifically, the role of seasonally dry tropical forests for dispersal across South America, and how the morphological diversity on the Caribbean islands evolved. The PhD student will engage in diverse activities spanning field work in South America and the Caribbean, fossil description, alpha taxonomy, phylogenomics, historical biogeography, and bioinformatics. The research associate will have the opportunity to work towards a PhD.

- Collaborate closely with project partners on project objectives and publications
**Your profile**
- Master’s degree in evolutionary biology (ideally in entomology)
- strong interest in entomology and systematics
- a background in phylogenomics (preferentially anchored hybrid enrichment, low-coverage whole-genome sequencing), including assembly and wet lab methods
- Experience with methods of divergence time estimation, ancestral range reconstruction and trait evolution is also beneficial, as is publication in peer-reviewed journals
- Ability to work independently and as part of a team
- Ability to conduct field work in the Tropics
- Good communication and writing skills in English
