Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Zoology
  • Genus

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Sperm, Anatomy, Zoology, Caudata and Oviduct. His study in Sperm is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Ultrastructure, Epithelium and Reproduction. David M. Sever combines subjects such as Oviparity and Sauria with his study of Anatomy.

In general Zoology study, his work on Salamandroidea often relates to the realm of Cottonmouth, thereby connecting several areas of interest. His Caudata study combines topics in areas such as Exocrine gland, Comparative anatomy, Eurycea cirrigera and Spermatophore. His study looks at the relationship between Seminatrix and fields such as Infundibulum, as well as how they intersect with chemical problems.

His most cited work include:

  • Female sperm storage in reptiles (106 citations)
  • Female sperm storage in amphibians. (64 citations)
  • Ultrastructure of the reproductive system of the black swamp snake (Seminatrix pygaea): Part I. Evidence for oviducal sperm storage. (56 citations)

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

His primary areas of study are Anatomy, Sperm, Zoology, Ultrastructure and Spermatheca. David M. Sever interconnects Exocrine gland, Salamander and Spermatophore in the investigation of issues within Anatomy. His study in Sperm is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Epithelium, Oviduct, Seasonal breeder, Uterus and Mating.

His work carried out in the field of Zoology brings together such families of science as Ecology, Reproduction and Spermatogenesis. His work deals with themes such as Apocrine and Squamata, which intersect with Ultrastructure. He has researched Spermatheca in several fields, including Salamandridae, Female sperm storage, Vacuole and Internal fertilization.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Anatomy (68.38%)
  • Sperm (43.59%)
  • Zoology (35.04%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2014-2020)?

  • Anatomy (68.38%)
  • Zoology (35.04%)
  • Ultrastructure (29.91%)

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

David M. Sever mainly investigates Anatomy, Zoology, Ultrastructure, Salamander and Sexual dimorphism. His work on Nasal cavity as part of his general Anatomy study is frequently connected to Vomeronasal organ, thereby bridging the divide between different branches of science. His work on Squamata and Neoteny as part of general Zoology research is frequently linked to Group and Reproductive biology, bridging the gap between disciplines.

His Ultrastructure study which covers Acrosome that intersects with Centriole and Cell biology. His Salamander research also works with subjects such as

  • Spermatheca, Cloaca, Salt gland and Korean crevice salamander most often made with reference to Basophilic,
  • Exocrine gland which connect with Batrachochytrium salamandrivorans, Chytridiomycosis, Amphibian and Amphiuma tridactylum. His Sexual dimorphism study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Courtship and Mating.

Between 2014 and 2020, his most popular works were:

  • Male Urogenital Ducts and Cloacal Anatomy (20 citations)
  • Hormones and Reproduction in Free-ranging Snakes (14 citations)
  • Histology and ultrastructure of the caudal courtship glands of the red‐backed salamander, Plethodon cinereus (Amphibia: Plethodontidae) (9 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Genus
  • Zoology

His main research concerns Anatomy, Courtship, Zoology, Histology and Sexual dimorphism. His specific area of interest is Anatomy, where he studies Genitourinary system. In general Courtship, his work in Courtship display is often linked to Delivery mode linking many areas of study.

His Zoology research integrates issues from Hormone, Oedipina and Reproduction. The concepts of his Histology study are interwoven with issues in Family Plethodontidae, Seasonal breeder, Scent gland, Exocrine gland and Desmognathus conanti. His Sexual dimorphism research incorporates elements of Ultrastructure, Sex pheromone, Plethodon cinereus, Salamander and Basophilic.
