“Of wild parasites and insect friends – fungal biodiversity in Costa Rica”<\/h2>\n

We cordially invite you to an exciting lecture<\/strong> by Prof. Dr. Meike Piepenbring<\/strong> (Goethe University Frankfurt) in cooperation with Tropica Verde e.V. and the GeCoBio network on 06.07.2026<\/strong> at 19:00<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Costa Rica is located in a hotspot of biodiversity of fungi, plants and animals. The often inconspicuous fungi in particular have surprising survival strategies. <\/span>Fungi are neither plants nor animals – and in the tropics there are still countless species that have never been described before. It is precisely there, in the rainforest of Costa Rica, that Prof. Dr. Meike Piepenbring has been conducting research for decades. Before her last lecture at the Palmengarten, we conducted an interview with the long-standing Tropica Verde member<\/a>. <\/em><\/p>\n

We look forward to seeing you soon at the Palmengarten!<\/p>\n
