Specialties of Eric Flores:
n the Neotropics we experience astonishing biodiversity but natural history, habitat use, and species distribution still represents unsolved questions for many taxa. I am primarily interested in behavioral ecology of data deficient and critically endangered species in Panama specially amphibians and reptiles. The integration of these areas and conservation biology are also important in orienting my research.
