Area(s) of Specialization
Soil Ecology; Invertebrate Zoology; Taxonomy; Biodiversity; Myriapodology; Principles of Biology and Organismic Biology instruction.
I also conduct research on the biology, ecology, and taxonomy of millipedes, earthworms, and isopods (roly-polys).
I have broad interests across many fields of biology, but I specialize in two groups of soil-dwelling animals, earthworms and millipedes.
Research
- Invasive Species
- Taxonomy
- Millipede Ecology
- Life History
I also have interests in the following areas:
