Description

L’Insectarium René-Martineau (IRM) est le principal centre de documentation sur la diversité des insectes forestiers du Québec et de l’Est du Canada. L’IRM a été créé en 1999 pour la promotion de l’éducation et de la recherche sur les insectes forestiers dans les domaines de la biodiversité, la taxinomie, l’écologie, les insectes nuisibles établis et émergents, de même que d’autres branches de la science. L’IRM consiste en une collection d’insectes ainsi qu’en un laboratoire de recherche. Ses principaux rôles consistent à aider à l’identification d’insectes et à préserver et agrandir la collection d’insecte de l’Est du Canada. Près de 200 000 spécimens, principalement des insectes forestiers, sont gardés dans la collection de l’IRM. Le jeux de données publié ici inclue les odonates.
