Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Genus
  • Ecology
  • Botany

Donald L. J. Quicke focuses on Braconidae, Evolutionary biology, Zoology, Hymenoptera and Ecology. His Braconidae research incorporates themes from Taxon and Taxonomy. His Taxon research integrates issues from Convergent evolution and Genus.

His Evolutionary biology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Sister group, Phylogenetics, Clade, Mitochondrial DNA and Aphidiinae. His research in Zoology intersects with topics in Subfamily and Monophyly. In the subject of general Hymenoptera, his work in Parasitoid and Ovipositor is often linked to Aleiodes glutinum and Aleiodes propodocarinus, thereby combining diverse domains of study.

His most cited work include:

  • History of Insects (545 citations)
  • Early tetrapod relationships revisited. (224 citations)
  • A Molecular Phylogeny of the Aphidiinae (Hymenoptera: Braconidae) (198 citations)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Hymenoptera, Braconidae, Zoology, Ecology and Botany. His Hymenoptera research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Lepidoptera genitalia, Host and Key. His Braconidae research includes themes of Taxonomy, Genus and Type species.

The various areas that Donald L. J. Quicke examines in his Zoology study include Phylogenetics, Subfamily, Monophyly and Phylogenetic tree. The study of Phylogenetic tree is intertwined with the study of Evolutionary biology in a number of ways. His study in Evolutionary biology is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Sister group and Aphidiinae.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Hymenoptera (61.25%)
  • Braconidae (53.56%)
  • Zoology (53.56%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2017-2021)?

  • Zoology (53.56%)
  • Hymenoptera (61.25%)
  • Braconidae (53.56%)

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

Donald L. J. Quicke focuses on Zoology, Hymenoptera, Braconidae, Statistical analysis and Genus. His work on Parasitoid and Parasitoid wasp as part of general Zoology research is frequently linked to Gondwana, thereby connecting diverse disciplines of science. His work carried out in the field of Hymenoptera brings together such families of science as Evolutionary biology and Basal.

The DNA barcoding research Donald L. J. Quicke does as part of his general Evolutionary biology study is frequently linked to other disciplines of science, such as stat, therefore creating a link between diverse domains of science. His research investigates the connection between Basal and topics such as Tribe that intersect with problems in Phylogenetic tree. The concepts of his Braconidae study are interwoven with issues in Subfamily and Butcher.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • A highly resolved food web for insect seed predators in a species-rich tropical forest. (18 citations)
  • A cross‐continental comparison of assemblages of seed‐ and fruit‐feeding insects in tropical rain forests: Faunal composition and rates of attack (8 citations)
  • Revision of the endemic New Zealand braconid wasp genus Metaspathius: new subfamily placement, and descriptions of four new species including three with fully winged females (Hymenoptera: Braconidae: Mesostoinae) (7 citations)

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

  • Genus
  • Ecology
  • Botany

His scientific interests lie mostly in Zoology, Hymenoptera, Braconidae, Host and Subfamily. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Lepidoptera genitalia and Sesiinae. The Hymenoptera study combines topics in areas such as Evolutionary biology and Genus.

His study explores the link between Evolutionary biology and topics such as Basal that cross with problems in Phylogenetic tree. His work in the fields of Parasitoid overlaps with other areas such as Seed predation. In his study, which falls under the umbrella issue of Subfamily, Molecular phylogenetics is strongly linked to Ichneumonidae.
