Conteúdo:

In the 21st century, we still need to talk about gender inequality in science. Even with the
sharp growth of studies on this theme over the last decades, we are still trying to convince

our peers that diversity matters and, if embraced, makes better science. Part of this draw-
back can be related to the need for data to support effective proposals to change the aca-
demic scenario. In order to close some of those gaps, we here analyze 1) the profile of

Brazilian researchers based on production, impact, and membership to the Brazilian Acad-
emy of Sciences, 2) participation in the Editorial boards of Brazilian journals dedicated to

Entomology, and, 3) the academic scenario of Brazilian Entomology focusing on the sex of
the first and last authors in peer-reviewed international publications related to Entomology.
We aimed to provide a deeper look on the Brazilian Entomology scenario and to expand the
amount of data availability to stimulate and foster a mind-change in the current academic
structure. We performed scientometric searches and analysis using different platforms and
found that the number and impact of the publications by female researchers, as observed
by relative numbers, are not less than that of males. Despite that, female researchers are
less represented at the Brazilian Academy of Sciences and editorial boards, reinforcing the
lack of women recognition in science. Thus, we observe that some narratives related to the
productivity gap can be misleading to a perpetuation of our internal and structural biases.

We here expanded data from a previous paper where we scrutinized the Brazilian Entomol-
ogy scenario and discussed the patches and systems that maintain gender gap in science.
