How to get copies of my published papers and data

To get copies of my publications, please follow the links above to the journals' websites. If you are unable to obtain a copy on your own, write to susanne (at) schulmeister.com.

To obtain electronic versions of my morphological data or additional information (e.g., collection data), email to the same address.

To obtain DNA sequences that were used in my publications, please go to GenBank. If the ones you need are not published there yet, please send me an email. Here you will find a table listing all the accession numbers of the hymenopteran DNA sequences that I used in my published studies and that have been published in GenBank so far.



Errata and Additions

Schulmeister, S., 2003c: The species used to generate the DNA sequences for the OTU "Abia A" was actually Abia sericea L., not Abia fasciata.
