My work integrates field inventory activities with molecular phylogenetic techniques
and geospatial analysis to investigate Madagascar, an area of the world that is biologically
complex, poorly understood, and urgently threatened. Madagascar has been designated
as one of the most critical geographic priorities for conservation action, retaining
less than 10% of the natural habitats that existed before human colonization. It is
critical that information be obtained as quickly as possible to docum
