      abstract     = {Natural history collections house material from centuries
                      of collecting efforts. In the Phyletisches Museum Jena
                      (PMJ), ca. 1 Mio specimens are deposited, some of them
                      dating back as far as the 17th century. Modern imaging
                      techniques have the potential to gain new insights from this
                      historical material. However, a large part of the PMJ insect
                      collection has not been revised by scientists in recent
                      times. We screened the entire Auchenorrhyncha collection and
                      found several specimens parasitized by two different species
                      of the genus Halictophagus (Halictophagidae, Strepsiptera)
                      that had previously been overlooked. These historical
                      findings represent the only evidence to date of the
                      occurrence of these two species in Germany and therefore
                      suggest, at least historically, a larger distribution area
                      than was previously known. In addition, hitherto unknown
                      females and primary larvae were morphologically documented
                      using state-of-the-art techniques such as
                      synchrotron-radiation-based X-ray µCT and scanning electron
                      microscopy. The data generated in this study cover the field
                      of collectomics and can be seamlessly used as a basis for
                      the emerging discipline of museomics. In taxonomic and
                      systematic research and in the context of environmental
                      change, pinned insects may play an outstanding role in the
                      near future, as their DNA is not damaged by formalin
                      fixation and thus can yield remarkable results even after
                      more than 100 years. Our results underpin the value of
                      historical material for modern research questions,
                      especially for species that are difficult to find in
                      nature.},
