The Pyron Lab

We are a group of evolutionary biologists focusing on the systematics and biogeography of amphibians and reptiles.

Research Areas

• Phylogeography and Speciation: Dusky Salamanders (Desmognathus)
• Biogeography and Systematics: Amphibians and Squamates
• Biodiversity Conservation: Environmental Ethics and Moral Philosophy

We welcome prospective graduate students. Master’s and PhD students can join the Weintraub Program at GW and be part of an active community of systematists in the DC area.
