Name: Terroricha. Some of you may know me as Iratus Ranunculus (Latin for Angry Little Frog) from the Frog Forum, but I cannot resist site-specific puns.
Birthplace: Fairbanks Alaska
Hometown (after 10 years in AK): Mesa/Tempe Arizona
Sex: Male
Gender: Male
Orientation: Gay, Homosexual Classification-Wookiee
Myers-Briggs Personality Type: INTJ
Age: 24
Education: B.S. Biology Arizona State University 2008, PhD Quantitative Biology UT Arlington, expected 2012-2013 depending on how field seasons go.
Dissertation TitleHad to change my project a bit) Biotic and Abiotic Factors Mediating Anuran Breeding Phenology, Species Composition, and Larval Morphological Variation Across a Hydroperiod Gradient.
In other words, I am a behavioral and community ecologist who works with amphibians
Other interests include amphibian phylogenetics, phylogeography, conservation, and metapopulation dynamics and ecophysiology. As well as an oddball interest in the evolution of human sexual behavior.
Journal Subscriptions: Animal Behavior, Journal of Herpetology, Herpetological Review, Ecology.
Languages Spoken: English, German, Smidgen of Latin, Legalese
Religionhilosophical Naturalist/Scientific Pantheist. In other words, I dont believe in the supernatural, but in a very broad sense, worship the universe and the natural world. A marsh or swamp is like a cathedral to me.
Politics: So left wing I am just shy of being a communist.
Music: Classical Music, Nordic symphonic metal, Medieval Folk Music, Alt Rock
TV: Dont have one, but when I watch TV I tend to watch The Rachel Maddow Show, Law and Order spinoffs, and the National Geographic Channel. I also enjoy Rome, Gargoyles, Cosmos, Bill Nye etc. Oh and Star Trek, Babylon 5, Battlestar Gallactica, and Farscape.
Movies: Science Fiction, Fantasty, Documentaries and certain types of intelligent comedy.
Books: Science Fiction, Fantasy, Academic Texts
Sense of Humor: Dark and Jaded. I am cynic who enjoys poking at the failings of people, as well as disillusioning them of their hopes and dreams. Dont worry, I have no intention of raising children.

Notopthalamus viridescens
Paramesotriton chinensis
Lithobates pipiens
Lithobates sphenocephalus
Lithobates catesbieanus
Bufo americanus
Osteopilus septentrionalis
Hyla versicolor
