I am using techniques such as bioacoustics, climatic modelling, and molecular techniques to study evolution, behavioural and ecology of some groups of animals in Asia. My principal interest lies in understanding social and reproductive communications, systematics and conservation of amphibians using observational and experimental approach. I also spend my time collecting data of habitat niche and resource partitioning between some sympatric elusive and threatened species and like to contribute… Show more I am using techniques such as bioacoustics, climatic modelling, and molecular techniques to study evolution, behavioural and ecology of some groups of animals in Asia. My principal interest lies in understanding social and reproductive communications, systematics and conservation of amphibians using observational and experimental approach. I also spend my time collecting data of habitat niche and resource partitioning between some sympatric elusive and threatened species and like to contribute to their conservation. In my previous projects, I ahve worked on diversity and ecology of herpetofauna in Central Indian Highlands and Western Ghats of India. I have also worked on the systematics of anurans in Eastern Indian biogeographic region. Show less

I worked here as Research Associate on a project of Multi volume of Flora-Fauna of Rashtrapati Bhavan Estate. My key job responsibilities areas were to determine species richness and diversity for ecosystem assessment within the remnant of Aravalli forest in Delhi Ridge in Rashtrapati Bhavan Estate and propose conservation measures to the authorities.
