My broad interests are in systematics and biogeography of Coleoptera. More specifically, my research is
primarily on the large family Tenebrionidae, especially those of the Western Hemisphere. Since retirement
(1992), I have concentrated on two major projects: a revision of the genus Eleodes and of the
Neotropical Diaperini. I continue the seemingly endless task of compiling a catalog of the Tenebrionidae
of the United States and Canada. That project has enabled me to spot groups in need of revision and
gives me a broad perspective of the entire family.
