Background

Cand. scient. in botany at Dept. of Biology, University of Oslo.

Philosophiae Doctor in botany at Natural History Museum, University of Oslo.

Teaching and tutoring

Plant systematics and evolution. Molecular systematics. Historical biogeography.

Special fields

Phylogeny, systematics, molecular methods, and historical biogeography.

Knowledge of/current research on the following groups of organisms:

  1. Plants: Rafflesiaceae and subfamily Lamioideae (Lamiaceae), with special focus on Stachys, Lamium and Galeopsis.
     
  2. Lichens: Hypocenomyce and Staurolemma omphalarioides
     
  3. Fungi: Serpula and selected species-groups of Cortinarius subgenus Phlegmacium

Ongoing projects

I am currently working on molecular systematics of the lamioid genera Stachys and Galeopsis, historical biogeography of subfamily Lamioideae, conservation-genetics of the lichen species Staurolemma omphalarioides, molecular systematics of the lichen genus Hypocenomyce, and species-delimitation in selected species-groups of the fungal genus Cortinarius subgenus Phlegmacium. See right column for project list.
