Comment

My research interests include insect systematics and aquatic entomology, with emphasis on aquatic flies (Diptera); Diptera phylogeny; systematics and ecology of aquatic insects, especially aquatic midges, black flies, and mosquitoes; and stream ecology. I regularly teach courses in Systematic Entomology, Advanced Systematics, and Aquatic Insects.
