Prof John Endler ~ Adjunct Professor
Terrestrial Ecology
- About
-
- Interests
-
- Research
-
- Sensory Ecology, Behavioural Ecology, Evolutionary Ecology, Reciprocal effects of Ecology, Behaviour and Sensory Physiology on Evolution.
- All of my research has been in the wet tropics, first in South and Central America and since 1988 in Australia.
- Most commonly I work with freshwater fishes and bowerbirds, but I've also worked on Frogs, Lizards, Snakes and several groups of insects.
