Hello,

I am a lecturer at the School of Biological Sciences, University of Auckland. I completed my PhD in early 2020, which includes a taxonomic revision of the ground beetle genus Mecodema, but only species from the North Island, New Zealand. My current research includes the biogeography of the subtribe Nothobroscina Roig-Juñent 2000, using morphological and molecular analyses. Once I have finished revising the tribe Broscini, then I will revise the New Zealand Pterostichini.

However, I am also studying the complexities of parasitoid wasps (Hymenoptera) in different habitat types throughout New Zealand.
