Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Genus
  • Habitat

His primary areas of study are Ecology, Lizard, Biome, Species richness and Biodiversity. Ecology is a component of his Habitat, Teiidae, Endemism, Predation and Amazonian studies. His Lizard research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Nocturnal, Animal ecology and Vegetation.

Guarino R. Colli interconnects Allopatric speciation, Approximate Bayesian computation, Genetic structure and Species complex in the investigation of issues within Biome. His study in Species richness is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Global biodiversity, Conservation biology, Biodiversity hotspot and Amazon rainforest. His Biodiversity research focuses on Taxon and how it connects with Vicariance.

His most cited work include:

  • The phylogeny of advanced snakes (Colubroidea), with discovery of a new subfamily and comparison of support methods for likelihood trees. (231 citations)
    1. The Character and Dynamics of the Cerrado Herpetofauna (214 citations)
  • Revisiting the historical distribution of Seasonally Dry Tropical Forests: new insights based on palaeodistribution modelling and palynological evidencegeb (197 citations)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Ecology, Lizard, Zoology, Squamata and Biodiversity. His Ecology study is mostly concerned with Species richness, Habitat, Biome, Predation and Biogeography. His Lizard study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Niche, Extinction, Amazon rainforest, Foraging and Body size.

His research integrates issues of Ultrastructure, Sperm and Monophyly in his study of Zoology. He works mostly in the field of Squamata, limiting it down to concerns involving Teiidae and, occasionally, Cnemidophorus. His Biodiversity study combines topics in areas such as Rainforest, Agroforestry, Deforestation and Ecosystem.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Ecology (64.67%)
  • Lizard (21.74%)
  • Zoology (20.65%)

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

  • Ecology (64.67%)
  • Biodiversity (17.39%)
  • Evolutionary biology (7.61%)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Ecology, Biodiversity, Evolutionary biology, Habitat and Zoology. His study in Biogeography, Ectotherm, Environmental gradient, Microclimate and Threatened species falls under the purview of Ecology. His research in Biodiversity intersects with topics in Agroforestry, Species richness, Vegetation, Biome and Rainforest.

His study on Evolutionary biology also encompasses disciplines like

  • Lineage which intersects with area such as Coalescent theory,
  • Phylogeography that intertwine with fields like Genetic divergence,
  • Gene flow together with Genetic structure and Approximate Bayesian computation,
  • Biological dispersal that intertwine with fields like Ecological niche and Monophyly. The study incorporates disciplines such as Phylogenetic diversity and Community structure in addition to Habitat. His Zoology study deals with Species complex intersecting with Cercosaura ocellata, Cercosaura, Gymnophthalmidae, Subspecies and Sympatry.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Extinct, obscure or imaginary: The lizard species with the smallest ranges (32 citations)
  • Atlas of Brazilian Snakes: Verified Point-Locality Maps to Mitigate the Wallacean Shortfall in a Megadiverse Snake Fauna (28 citations)
  • Extinction risks forced by climatic change and intraspecific variation in the thermal physiology of a tropical lizard. (27 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Genus
  • IUCN Red List

His main research concerns Ecology, Biodiversity, Phylogeography, Range and Evolutionary biology. Guarino R. Colli has included themes like Isolation by distance and Extinction in his Ecology study. His Biodiversity research includes elements of Agroforestry, Amazon rainforest, Species richness, Vegetation and Ectotherm.

Guarino R. Colli has researched Species richness in several fields, including Squamata, Fauna and Threatened species. His Range study incorporates themes from Taxon and Species distribution. Guarino R. Colli focuses mostly in the field of Biological dispersal, narrowing it down to matters related to Species complex and, in some cases, Zoology.
