Frank Zachos

I am head of the Mammal Collection at the Natural History Museum in Vienna, Austria and affiliated professor at the Department of Genetics at UFS, Bloemfontein, South Africa. I studied biology, philosophy, and the history of science. My zoological focus is on the evolution, bio-/phylogeography and population/conservation genetics of mammals and birds. My main theoretical interests are species concepts and the history and theory of phylogenetics, systematics, taxonomy and evolutionary biology.
