The recent finding that the IGIMF (integrated galaxial initial stellar mass function) composed of all newly formed stars in all young star clusters has, in dependence of the SFR, a steeper slope in the high mass regime than the underlying canonical IMF of each star cluster offers new insights into the galactic star formation process: The classical linear relation between the SFR and the produced H luminosity is broken and SFRs are always underestimated. Our new relation is likely to lead to a revision of the cosmological SFH.
