Join us for the next RoomtoGrow Kirstenbosch Wednesday Talk hosted online by Struik Nature. Introduction by Brett Chilcott of RoomToGrow

In this presentation, Paul will discuss recent contributions to our knowledge of fishes, shedding new light on this ‘out of sight and out of mind’ group of vertebrate animals.

Emeritus Professor Paul H. Skelton has focused on freshwater fishes all his professional life. He began his career at the Albany Museum in Makhanda (Grahamstown) as curator of lower vertebrates. In 1984, he joined the South African Institute for Aquatic Biodiversity (formerly the JLB Smith Institute of Ichthyology) as curator of freshwater fishes. He was appointed director of the institute in 1995, a position he held until his retirement in 2011. He has received several awards for his contribution to the field and has served on the IUCN Freshwater Specialist Group. He lives in Port Alfred, South Africa.
