A systematic revision of the moss genus Holomitrium Brid.
(Dicranaceae). My
thesis research is a worldwide systematic treatment of the pantropical genus Holomitrium
(Musci: Dicranaceae). It will be an integrated study based on traditional
taxonomical methods and involving aspects of phylogeny, biogeography and
reproductive biology. Link to information on Holomitrium
project. My
Ph.D. research at Missouri Botanical Garden is supported by the NSF-PEET
initiative. Back to TOP |

B.Sc.
in Ecology and Environmental Management. University of Wales, College of
Cardiff, June 1993. M.Sc.
in Ecology. University of Wales, College of Bangor, July 1995. During
my Ecology masters I developed an interest in mosses; moss systematics and
moss ecology. My M.Sc. thesis research was on the life-forms of epiphytic
bryophytes in montane Polylepis spp. (Rosaceae) woodlands. I spent
three months in El Cajas National Recreation Park, Ecuador doing my field
research. |
