1. The taxonomy and
systematics of the African and Madagascan freshwater crabs. This
involves the identification of specimens, the description of new taxa,
the construction of taxonomic keys, and the derivation of
classifications based on the results of cladistic analysis.
2. The role of freshwater crabs in the
transmission of human lung fluke disease (African paragonimiasis) in
West Africa, and in the transmission of river blindness (onchocerciasis)
to humans in East Africa. This research is aimed at (a) the
identification of those species of freshwater crabs that serve as hosts
or vectors of the parasites that cause these diseases, and (b) the
development of control programs that can best limit the disease.
3. Phylogenetic analyses of the freshwater crabs
of the world. This research aims to resolve questions concerning (a)
the marine sister groups of the freshwater crabs, and (b) the origin and
age of the freshwater crabs. It also focuses on the proper
interpretation of the morphological and biogeographical evidence that
best explains the present day patterns of distribution of the freshwater
crabs.
4. Studies in the ecological physiology of
decapod crustaceans. Subject animals are selected according to
geographical location (UK: marine crabs and crayfish; Africa and
Thailand: freshwater crabs; USA: crayfish). The research questions
involve comparative studies of aspects of the cardiac, respiratory, and
osmoregulatory physiology, and of the mechanisms of nitrogenous
excretion of decapod crustaceans.
5. Freshwater crab conservation.
Led a group of specialists from Asia, Africa, and the Neotropics to
compile data for the first-ever global conservation assessment of the
freshwater crabs. Applied the IUCN Red-List criteria (2004) to
assess the threat level of all known species of freshwater crabs.
This research aims to identify which species of freshwater crab are
threatened with extinction.
Student Research Projects
Undergraduate students participate in research projects under my
supervision. Recent examples include a study of osmoregulation in
Thai freshwater crabs, a taxonomic revision of the
freshwater crabs of Tanzania, descriptions of new species from Africa,
Madagascar and Guyana, a study of the distribution patterns of the freshwater
crabs of Madagascar, databasing freshwater crab biodiversity, molecular phylogenies of the freshwater crabs of West Africa and
Madagascar, the taxonomy of the freshwater crabs of Lake Tanganyika, a morphometric and cladistic analysis of the freshwater crabs of the
Ruwenzori mountains in Uganda, the distribution and ecology of crayfish
in Northern Michigan. Other studies have included a molecular phylogeny of sturgeon, studies on
the characterization of the preorbital gland secretion of African
elephants, and the behavior of angelfish on a coral reef in Belize.
