Chris Moeseneder
In my role as a Research Associate with the Australian Museum I work on the taxonomy of the Australian Cetoniinae, or flower beetles. I use an integrated approach that combines morphology, molecular studies and behaviour. At the CSIRO I develop new ways to detect illegal fishing in countries where this is a significant problem.
