What is he best known for?
The fields of study he is best known for:
The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Ecology, Biodiversity, Species richness, Taxon and DNA barcoding.
Ecology connects with themes related to Amblyoponinae in his study.
His Biodiversity research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Taxonomic rank, Endemism, Habitat and Introduced species.
The study incorporates disciplines such as Global biodiversity, Southern Hemisphere and Species diversity in addition to Species richness.
Brian L. Fisher combines subjects such as Evolutionary biology, Abundance and Phylogenomics, Clade with his study of Taxon.
His DNA barcoding research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Taxonomy and Arthropod.
His most cited work include:
- Aligning Conservation Priorities Across Taxa in Madagascar with High-Resolution Planning Tools (420 citations)
- Evaluating alternative hypotheses for the early evolution and diversification of ants. (397 citations)
- DNA barcoding for effective biodiversity assessment of a hyperdiverse arthropod group: the ants of Madagascar (371 citations)
What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
Ecology, Hymenoptera, Zoology, Taxonomy and Genus are his primary areas of study.
His Ecology research focuses on Biodiversity, Habitat, Species richness, Fauna and Taxon.
His Taxon study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Evolutionary biology, Clade and Threatened species.
Brian L. Fisher has researched Hymenoptera in several fields, including Invasive species, Species groups and ANT.
His work on Tetramorium, Pheidole and Subgenus as part of his general Zoology study is frequently connected to Subfamily, thereby bridging the divide between different branches of science.
His studies in Taxonomy integrate themes in fields like Endemism and Biogeography.
He most often published in these fields:
- Ecology (45.51%)
- Hymenoptera (41.67%)
- Zoology (40.38%)
What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2015-2021)?
- Zoology (40.38%)
- Ecology (45.51%)
- Taxonomy (33.33%)
In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:
Brian L. Fisher spends much of his time researching Zoology, Ecology, Taxonomy, Hymenoptera and Evolutionary biology.
His Genus, Subgenus and Monomorium study in the realm of Zoology connects with subjects such as Subfamily.
ANT, Fauna, Biodiversity, Holotype and Habitat are the subjects of his Ecology studies.
His research integrates issues of Morphometrics and Biogeography in his study of Taxonomy.
The various areas that Brian L. Fisher examines in his Hymenoptera study include Species groups and Invasive species.
The concepts of his Evolutionary biology study are interwoven with issues in Clade, Molecular phylogenetics, Taxon, Ponerinae and Natural selection.
Between 2015 and 2021, his most popular works were:
- A revised phylogenetic classification of the ant subfamily Formicinae (Hymenoptera: Formicidae), with resurrection of the genera Colobopsis and Dinomyrmex (49 citations)
- Photography-based taxonomy is inadequate, unnecessary, and potentially harmful for biological sciences (32 citations)
- Compositional heterogeneity and outgroup choice influence the internal phylogeny of the ants. (26 citations)
In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:
His main research concerns Ecology, Evolutionary biology, Leptanillinae, Molecular phylogenetics and Ponerinae.
His study in Taxonomy, Holotype, Hymenoptera, Identification key and Nesomyrmex is done as part of Ecology.
His Taxonomy study combines topics in areas such as Biodiversity hotspot and Rebuttal.
When carried out as part of a general Evolutionary biology research project, his work on DNA barcoding is frequently linked to work in Introductory Journal Article, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of study.
The Leptanillinae study combines topics in areas such as Amblyoponinae and Leptanilla.
His research in Molecular phylogenetics intersects with topics in Anochetus, Clade, Mandible and Odontomachus.
