GARY POORE

I joined Museum Victoria as Curator of Crustacea in 1979 and retired in 2009. My research concentrates on the systematics of several crustacean taxa and and their relationship to environmental issues in all marine realms. I am still actively involved in research and international collaborations, particularly on decapods (lobsters, crabs etc) and isopods.
