説明

<p>The Echinodermata is, in terms of species, one of the largest of animal phyla. They are distributed exclusively and widely in the marine environment, where they occupy important biological and environmental roles. Despite their relevance, relatively few scientists have studied echinoderms in Japan. I have comprehensively surveyed the echinoderm fauna of Japan and adjacent regions, and have discovered diverse and intriguing taxa. My research on these species has utilized diverse approaches, including taxonomy, phylogeny, ecology, morphology and paleontology. I have also initiated educational and outreach activities intended to encourage the study of echinoderm biology and natural history, including an annual scientific meeting emphasizing echinoderm research in Japan. Thanks to collaboration with students in my laboratory, scientific colleagues and “citizen scientists” including fans of echinoderms, we have seen a significant increase in Japanese echinoderm research.</p>
