Research Interests

For over 30 years I have maintained a research programme devoted to the systematics and biogeography of Australasian arachnids, with major contributions to the study of pseudoscorpions, spiders and water mites, as well as some of the smaller orders such as the Schizomida and Amblypygi.

I have developed an online catalog of the Pseudoscorpions of the World.
