General directs:

Systematics and biology of monogeneans.

Scientific interests:

• systematics of Dactylogyridae sensu Bychowsky et Nagibina,1978;
• volume, structure and phylogenesis of Dactylogyridea sensu Boeger et Kritsky,1993;
• systematics and biology of some marine monogeneans (Ligophorus spp., Gyrodactylus spp., Polyclithrum spp. and others);
• bilogy and morphology of diplozoons.

Projects:

• GRANT of RFBR No 95-04-11196 "Systematics of family Dactylogyridae (Platyhelminthes: Monegenea)" (1995-1996)
• GRANT of RFBR No 97-04-48982 "Order  Dactylogyridea (Monogenea: Platyhelminthes): catologe of the world fauna, sistematics and phylogeny" (1997-1999)
