Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Crustacean
  • Genetics
  • Ecology

Gerhard Scholtz mainly focuses on Evolutionary biology, Anatomy, Ecology, Zoology and Phylogenetic tree. As a part of the same scientific study, Gerhard Scholtz usually deals with the Evolutionary biology, concentrating on Phylogenetics and frequently concerns with Taxon. The Anatomy study combines topics in areas such as Xiphosura, Chelicerata, Crustacean and Arthropod.

Many of his studies on Ecology involve topics that are commonly interrelated, such as Parthenogenesis. Gerhard Scholtz interconnects Thelytoky and Monophyly in the investigation of issues within Zoology. His work on Panarthropoda and Clade as part of general Phylogenetic tree research is frequently linked to Ground pattern and Position, bridging the gap between disciplines.

His most cited work include:

  • Phylogenetic systematics of the reptantian Decapoda (Crustacea, Malacostraca) (229 citations)
  • Invertebrate neurophylogeny: suggested terms and definitions for a neuroanatomical glossary (221 citations)
  • The evolution of arthropod heads: reconciling morphological, developmental and palaeontological evidence. (209 citations)

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

His main research concerns Anatomy, Crustacean, Zoology, Evolutionary biology and Ecology. His Anatomy research focuses on Appendage in particular. His Crustacean research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Neuropil and Limb development.

The concepts of his Zoology study are interwoven with issues in Ontogeny and Monophyly. His Evolutionary biology study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Sister group, Phylogenetic tree, Arthropod, Developmental biology and Phylogenetics. Gerhard Scholtz studies Ecology, namely Crayfish.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Anatomy (38.81%)
  • Crustacean (24.63%)
  • Zoology (21.64%)

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

  • Evolutionary biology (21.64%)
  • Crustacean (24.63%)
  • Arthropod (15.67%)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Evolutionary biology, Crustacean, Arthropod, Zoology and Anatomy. The study incorporates disciplines such as Seriality, Developmental biology and Dorsum in addition to Evolutionary biology. His study in the fields of Tigriopus californicus under the domain of Crustacean overlaps with other disciplines such as Affinities.

His Arthropod study which covers Ventral nerve cord that intersects with Chelicerata, Neuroanatomy and Phylogenetics. His Decapoda study, which is part of a larger body of work in Zoology, is frequently linked to Chemoreceptor, bridging the gap between disciplines. His Anatomy research incorporates themes from Cell, Trunk and Limb development.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Comparison of ventral organ development across Pycnogonida (Arthropoda, Chelicerata) provides evidence for a plesiomorphic mode of late neurogenesis in sea spiders and myriapods. (8 citations)
  • Trilobite compound eyes with crystalline cones and rhabdoms show mandibulate affinities (6 citations)
  • Phylogenomic Resolution of Sea Spider Diversification through Integration of Multiple Data Classes. (5 citations)

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

  • Crustacean
  • Genetics
  • Ecology

His primary areas of study are Evolutionary biology, Pycnogonidae, Arthropod, Sister group and Echinoderm. His research integrates issues of Devonian, Ordovician, Lineage and Crustacean in his study of Evolutionary biology. His Pycnogonidae research spans across into subjects like Neuroanatomy, Chelicerata, Phylogenetics, Neurogenesis and Ventral nerve cord.

His work deals with themes such as Sea spider, Phylogenomics and Crown group, which intersect with Echinoderm.
