Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Genus
  • Ecology
  • Gene

His primary scientific interests are in Ecology, Phylogenetics, Evolutionary biology, Insect and Phylogenetic tree. Ecology is closely attributed to Sister group in his research. His work on Cladogram, Monophyly and Ditrysia as part of general Phylogenetics research is frequently linked to Nonsynonymous substitution, bridging the gap between disciplines.

In Evolutionary biology, Charles Mitter works on issues like Noctuoidea, which are connected to Bombycoidea. The concepts of his Insect study are interwoven with issues in Clade and Species diversity. His study looks at the relationship between Phylogenetic tree and topics such as Subfamily, which overlap with Botany.

His most cited work include:

  • The Phylogenetic Study of Adaptive Zones: Has Phytophagy Promoted Insect Diversification? (543 citations)
  • Animal biodiversity: An outline of higher-level classification and survey of taxonomic richness (509 citations)
  • Nitrogen in Insects: Implications for Trophic Complexity and Species Diversification (347 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

Charles Mitter focuses on Evolutionary biology, Phylogenetics, Ecology, Phylogenetic tree and Zoology. In his study, Noctuinae is inextricably linked to Noctuoidea, which falls within the broad field of Evolutionary biology. The various areas that he examines in his Phylogenetics study include Taxon, Lepidoptera genitalia and Subfamily.

His research in Lepidoptera genitalia intersects with topics in Taxonomy, Cladistics and Larva. Many of his studies on Ecology involve topics that are commonly interrelated, such as Sister group. His Zoology research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Paraphyly, Ditrysia, Monophyly and Catocala.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Evolutionary biology (42.86%)
  • Phylogenetics (40.48%)
  • Ecology (32.14%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2013-2019)?

  • Evolutionary biology (42.86%)
  • Zoology (28.57%)
  • Taxon (15.48%)

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:

His primary areas of investigation include Evolutionary biology, Zoology, Taxon, Monophyly and Phylogenetics. Charles Mitter interconnects Lepidoptera genitalia and Phylogenetic tree in the investigation of issues within Evolutionary biology. His work deals with themes such as Ditrysia and Scythrididae, which intersect with Zoology.

His research on Taxon also deals with topics like

  • Bayesian probability together with Host plants,
  • Cretaceous together with Flora, Ecology and Insect. While the research belongs to areas of Monophyly, he spends his time largely on the problem of Polyphyly, intersecting his research to questions surrounding Noctuinae, Noctuoidea, Notodontinae and Erebidae. Charles Mitter has researched Phylogenetics in several fields, including Gracillariidae and Locus.

Between 2013 and 2019, his most popular works were:

  • Phylogeny and Evolution of Lepidoptera. (93 citations)
    1. The Phylogenetic Dimension Of Insect-Plant Interactions: A Review Of Recent Evidence (59 citations)
  • A molecular phylogeny for the oldest (nonditrysian) lineages of extant Lepidoptera, with implications for classification, comparative morphology and life-history evolution (55 citations)

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Genus
  • Ecology
  • Gene

His primary scientific interests are in Evolutionary biology, Zoology, Dimension, Insect and Phylogenetic tree. His Evolutionary biology study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Systematics, Lepidoptera genitalia and Phylogenetics, Cladistics. His study in Zoology is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Palaephatidae, Synapomorphy and Monophyly.
