FIELD OF STUDY Systematics and evolution of the flowering plants, specializing in the plant family Lythraceae, the Loosestrifes, the species, their evolutionary and biogeographical history. Currently I am focused on two projects: producing a modern monograph of the ca. 250 species of the tropical American genus Cuphea, incorporating data from morphology, molecular phylogenies, palynology, chromsomes, and seed oil chemistry; and with two colleagues, to complete a family phylogeny and sufficient markers to expose the most basal evolutionary branches and representative of all genera.
