Abstract
- The academic and human legacy of Martín Leonel Zurita-García (1979-2020) is highlighted in this document. His academic career, especially in his universitarian period, is described. He devoted his research to the field of Entomology, in particular, to the Systematics, Biogeography, and Ecology of elaterid beetles, as well as Forensic Entomology. He published 17 scientific papers, and four book chapters; he also participated in five national and two international meetings. Martín Zurita is the author of seven Coleoptera taxa. He was a teacher of Systematics, Biogeography, and Forensic Entomology subjects at the Sciences School and Medicine School of the National Autonomous University of Mexico (UNAM). He was advisor or co-advisor of nine Bachelor's thesis in Biology, with topics such as Systematics, Faunistics, and Forensic Entomology. He also participated as a jury member in four graduate students' examinations (three Master's degrees and one Ph.D.). The second part of the document is testimonial: it includes the touching words expressed by siblings, advisor, friends, students, and colleagues, in whom Martín Zurita made a deep impression.
