Research Interests

  • My research focuses on understanding the evolutionary relationships and historical biogeography of teleost fishes using morphology, paleontology, molecular biology as data sources. A group called the Ostariophysi has been the focus of my work because of its importance both economically and scientifically. It is a group consisting of over 75% of all freshwater fish species, it has a world wide geographic distribution and an fossil record dating to the Early Cretaceous (over 60 million years). An understanding of this group is central to an understanding of fish evolution in general.
