My Postdoctoral project (@ Universidade de São Paulo, Brazil) combines Macroecology and Conservation by focusing on the spatial (and temporal) patterns of abundance of vertebrates, especially of Neotropical amphibians and reptiles.


My other parallel research interests include (but are not limited to):

  • understanding which traits make species more susceptible to extinction;
  • understanding the drivers of misdirected amplexus of amphibians;
  • testing the phylogenetic components of species ecology on their current and past distributions;
  • documenting natural history of reptiles and amphibians


Keywords: Abundance - Biogeography - Conservation - Macroecology - Population trends - Vertebrates
