Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Genus
  • Genetics

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Zoology, Taxonomy, Anopheles, Ecology and Genetics. His Zoology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Species complex and Monophyly. Richard C. Wilkerson combines subjects such as Anopheles lesteri and Anatomy with his study of Taxonomy.

Richard C. Wilkerson has included themes like Abundance, Human migration, Malaria vector, Amazon rainforest and Plasmodium in his Anopheles study. Many of his research projects under Ecology are closely connected to West bengal with West bengal, tying the diverse disciplines of science together. The concepts of his Genetics study are interwoven with issues in Culex and Culex pipiens.

His most cited work include:

  • Emerging vectors in the Culex pipiens complex. (375 citations)
  • Anopheles coluzzii and Anopheles amharicus, new members of the Anopheles gambiae complex. (356 citations)
  • Emergence of a New Neotropical Malaria Vector Facilitated by Human Migration and Changes in Land Use (153 citations)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Anopheles, Zoology, Ecology, Larva and Taxonomy. His research in Anopheles intersects with topics in Entomology, Internal transcribed spacer, Identification, Genus and Key. Richard C. Wilkerson works mostly in the field of Entomology, limiting it down to topics relating to Identification key and, in certain cases, Evolutionary biology, Aedeagus and Dorsum, as a part of the same area of interest.

His research integrates issues of Taxon, Bionomics and Species complex in his study of Zoology. His Species complex research is included under the broader classification of Genetics. He usually deals with Ecology and limits it to topics linked to Anopheles sinensis and Plasmodium vivax and Malaria vector.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Anopheles (74.45%)
  • Zoology (50.36%)
  • Ecology (45.26%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2015-2021)?

  • Anopheles (74.45%)
  • Entomology (32.85%)
  • Evolutionary biology (30.66%)

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

Richard C. Wilkerson focuses on Anopheles, Entomology, Evolutionary biology, Identification and Genus. Richard C. Wilkerson works on Anopheles which deals in particular with Anopheles sinensis. His Entomology research incorporates themes from Aedeagus and Identification key.

He has researched Evolutionary biology in several fields, including Range, Anopheles tessellatus, Theobald and Genetic diversity. His study in Identification is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Zoology, Morphology and Key. His study in Zoology focuses on Subgenus and Seta.

Between 2015 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Identification keys to the Anopheles mosquitoes of South America (Diptera: Culicidae). I. Introduction. (3 citations)
  • Identification keys to the Anopheles mosquitoes of South America (Diptera: Culicidae). I. Introduction. (3 citations)
  • Identification keys to the Anopheles mosquitoes of South America (Diptera: Culicidae). I. Introduction. (3 citations)
