Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Genus
  • IUCN Red List

Ecology, Zoology, Cypriniformes, Monophyly and Phylogenetic tree are his primary areas of study. The concepts of his Ecology study are interwoven with issues in Freshwater fish and Vicariance. His work focuses on many connections between Zoology and other disciplines, such as Molecular phylogenetics, that overlap with his field of interest in Cyprinidae.

His Cypriniformes research incorporates themes from Acrossocheilus, Capoeta, Teleostei and Labeobarbus. Richard L. Mayden combines subjects such as Lethenteron, Ichthyomyzon, Ostariophysi, Subfamily and Devario with his study of Monophyly. His research integrates issues of Phylogenetics, Puntius and Schizothorax in his study of Phylogenetic tree.

His most cited work include:

  • Diversity, distribution, and conservation status of the native freshwater fishes of the Southern United States (333 citations)
  • Mitogenomic evolution and interrelationships of the Cypriniformes (Actinopterygii: Ostariophysi): the first evidence toward resolution of higher-level relationships of the world's largest freshwater fish clade based on 59 whole mitogenome sequences. (265 citations)
  • VICARIANCE BIOGEOGRAPHY, PARSIMONY, AND EVOLUTION IN NORTH AMERICAN FRESHWATER FISHES (261 citations)

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

Richard L. Mayden mainly investigates Zoology, Ecology, Cypriniformes, Monophyly and Phylogenetic tree. His work deals with themes such as Sister group, Clade, Cyprinidae and Molecular phylogenetics, which intersect with Zoology. Richard L. Mayden has researched Cypriniformes in several fields, including Barbus, Nuclear gene, Cobitidae and Ostariophysi.

The various areas that Richard L. Mayden examines in his Monophyly study include Cytochrome b, Polyphyly, Subfamily, Paraphyly and Phylogeography. His research in Phylogenetic tree intersects with topics in Evolutionary biology, Phylogenetics and Taxon. His Endangered species research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Conservation status, Fishery and Threatened species.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Zoology (47.25%)
  • Ecology (44.50%)
  • Cypriniformes (27.98%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2013-2021)?

  • Ecology (44.50%)
  • Zoology (47.25%)
  • Cypriniformes (27.98%)

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

Richard L. Mayden mainly focuses on Ecology, Zoology, Cypriniformes, Cyprinidae and Monophyly. His Ecology study combines topics in areas such as Phylogenetics, Lineage and Genetic diversity. His Zoology research incorporates elements of Capoeta and Phylogenetic tree.

His Cypriniformes research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Evolutionary biology, Barbus and Meristics. His Cyprinidae research includes themes of Taxonomy, Teleostei and Snout. Monophyly is a subfield of Clade that Richard L. Mayden studies.

Between 2013 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Phylogeny and polyploidy: Resolving the classification of cyprinine fishes (Teleostei: Cypriniformes) (126 citations)
  • New insights on early evolution of spiny-rayed fishes (Teleostei: Acanthomorpha) (61 citations)
  • Phylogenetic relationships and classification of the Holarctic family Leuciscidae (Cypriniformes: Cyprinoidei). (37 citations)

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

  • Genus
  • Ecology
  • IUCN Red List

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Ecology, Cypriniformes, Monophyly, Clade and Zoology. His studies deal with areas such as Trout and Introgression as well as Ecology. His Cypriniformes research focuses on Evolutionary biology and how it relates to Paraphyly, Phoxinus, Systematics, Sister group and Leuciscinae.

His studies in Monophyly integrate themes in fields like Genus and Molecular phylogenetics. His Clade study is concerned with the field of Phylogenetic tree as a whole. Richard L. Mayden interconnects Barbus, Paracanthopterygii, Lampriformes and Beryciformes in the investigation of issues within Zoology.
