The State Museum of Natural History Stuttgart (SMNS) is one of the largest natural history museums in Germany emphasizing collection-based research in systematics, taxonomy, biodiversity and evolution. Job description: This PhD position falls within the scope of long-term research investigations developed at SMNS, aimed at understanding the origins and modalities of subterranean evolution and adaptation in beetles. The successful applicant will reconstruct the first molecular phylogeny of the tribe Bythini, with focus on subterranean species. The results will allow to clarify phylogenetic affinities between the genera, test the monophyly of the Dinaric group and the phylogenetic validity of previous classifications. In a second time, morphometric approaches will be used to study the evolution in size and shape of some morphological structures. Comparison of phylogeny and morphology will allow to test the importance of convergence in subterranean life. Moreover, acquisition of taxonomic...
