Research in Functional, Comparative and Evolutionary Morphology on the relationships between the form of structures, the functions they perform and the conditions of life in (1) Teleost fish and (2) adult Arthropods and during their ontogeny.

Communication in Holocentridae  

This ambitious research wants to study the evolution of communication and associated mechanisms in different species of squirrelfish and soldierfish (Holocentridae).

Electric communication  

Catfish from the genus Synodontis (Mochokidae) were recently shown to be ideal subjects to study macro-evolutionary processes.

Environmental sound impact  

Passive acoustics uses sound production in fishes in order to identify and follow populations in the field.

Ecomorphology of cetaceans  

The aim is to highlight, in a phylogenetic context, the effect of environmental constraints and way of life on the shape of different cetacean species.

Deep sea fishes  

This study wants to challenge the deployment of material allowing us the use of sounds and images to study, between 100 and 2500 meter depth.

Eco-morphology in Carapidae  

Les recherches concernent principalement la morphologie fonctionnelle, la phylogénie, l'éthologie, l'ontogénie, la communication acoustique et les processus évolutifs.

Sound production  

  • The fundamental components of the acoustic communication
  • The importance of acoustic communication in the biology and in the survival of the species
  • The potential contribution of the acoustic communication to the comprehension of the speciation phenomena
