Research Interests
My research is focused in studying the morphology and DNA of arachnids to unveil their diversity, systematics and biogeography. Within the arachnids, the study groups I work with are Amblypygi (whip spiders or tailless whip scorpions), Schizomida (shorttailed whipscorpion), Thelyphonida (whip scorpions or vinegaroons), Palpigradi (microwhip scorpion), Araneae (spiders) and Opiliones (harvestmen).
