Richard Fox

About me:

I am a professional ecologist working in biodiversity conservation and a long-time butterfly and moth enthusiast (on twitter as @RichardFoxBC). I have worked for the UK charity Butterfly Conservation (www.butterfly-conservation.org) since 1997, leading their work on butterfly and moth recording schemes and citizen science. I have been involved in a large number of research collaborations utilising the data gathered through these schemes and recently completed a PhD by Publication at the Environment and Sustainability Institute, Exeter University (Penryn).
