About David Tarkhnishvili

David Tarkhnishvili, With an exceptional h-index of 26 and a recent h-index of 15 (since 2020), a distinguished researcher at Ilia State University, specializes in the field of Evolutionary ecology, speciation, population biology, biogeography, Caucasus.

His recent articles reflect a diverse array of research interests and contributions to the field:

Which species of water frogs inhabit ponds of the Caucasus? Taxonomic mess with Pelophylax ridibundus species complex

Two-headed parthenogenetic lizard embryo from southern Georgia

The farther, the closer: geographic proximity and niche overlap versus genetic divergence in Caucasian rock lizards

Genetic structure of Ponto-Caspian trout populations shows gene flow among river drainages and supports resident Salmo rizeensis as a genetically distinct taxon

Living apart together: Morphological, spatial, and genetic differentiation of three sympatric rock lizard species (Lacertidae: Darevskia) of the Caucasus

Rarely naturalized, but widespread and even invasive: the paradox of a popular pet terrapin expansion in Eurasia

Morphological trends and genetic divergence in anacondas, genus Eunectes Wagler, 1830 (Serpentes: Boidae)

Reproductive effort of unisexual and bisexual rock lizards (genus Darevskia)
