BSc courses on 'Fauna and Flora' by Biosystematics

I am Fauna coordinator and lecturer in two BSc courses on the biology, diversity and systematics of arthropods/insects, namely 'Biodiversity of the Netherlands' and 'Webs of Terrestrial Diversity'. The first includes bike excursions around Wageningen and the second a 2-week excursion to the French Pyrenees! Below you find some impressions of the courses and links to the course websites.
