I'm interested in insects and their interactions with a wide range of organisms, including plants, fungi, slime molds, mammals, birds, reptiles, amphibians, and fish. My research mainly relies on observations in both field and laboratory settings, and I also perform field and laboratory experiments to test specific hypotheses. The resulting data are analyzed using simple statistical methods. I have published original results in peer-reviewed journals.
