Research

Research interests

My research interest lies in taxonomic and systematic studies on vascular plants of the Mediterranean flora, with a special focus on Italian endemics, lilioid bulbous geophytes and carnivorous plants. I am also interested in cytotaxonomy, plant ecology and conservation, and online databasing of karyological and floristic data (Chrobase and Wikiplantbase projects).
