Frank-Thorsten Krell
Dr. Frank-T. Krell is the curator of entomology in the Department of Zoology of the Denver Museum of Nature & Science. He received his diploma in biology (1992) and his doctorate (1996) from the University of Tübingen in Germany. His postdoctoral research took him to the Ivory Coast in West Africa where he led a project on scarab beetle biodiversity with the University of Würzburg, Germany.
After a short period with the Zoological Research Institute and Museum Alexander Koenig in Bonn, Germany, he became a research entomologist with The Natural History Museum, London, UK, in 2000. Before joining the Denver Museum of Nature & Science in January 2007, he was the head of the beetle division in London, and Editor of the Wiley-Blackwell journal Systematic Entomology.. Dr. Krell is Editor-in-Chief of the Denver Museum of Nature & Science Annals and commissioner of the International Commission on Zoological Nomenclature.
Dr Krell's specialty is taxonomy, systematics, and ecology of scarab beetles, especially dung beetles. Recording and explaining the high diversity in this insect group, as well as exploring the effects of anthropogenic habitat changes on dung beetle communities, are two main areas of his research. He is also working on fossil scarab faunas and has done fieldwork on all continents except Antarctica, with the main focus on Africa. He has a deep interest in scientific communication, publishing and evaluation.
