Ph.D. Student
I'm interested in larval morphology, taxonomy, systematics, evolution and larval ecology of the family Scarabaeidae (Coleoptera).
I'm mainly researching the subfamilies Cetoniinae, Trichinae and Valginae in the family Scarabaeidae.
■ Main research themes
- Comparative morphology of larvae in the family Scarabaeidae
- Morphological evolution of Larvae in the subfamiles Cetoniinae, Trichinae and Valginae
- Taxonomic study of the family Scarabaeidae
- Elucidation of habitats in the larvae of the subfamily Cetoniinae
