Glenn I. Moore

Glenn has been researching Western Australia’s fishes for nearly 35 years, and as the Curator of Fishes at the Western Australian Museum is recognised as the State’s authority for the identification and taxonomy of both marine and freshwater fishes. Glenn is an experienced field-based researcher to some of the most remote and unexplored parts of Western Australia. His research involves taxonomy, genetics, biodiversity, biogeography, ecology and evolution. Current projects include taxonomic descriptions of new species, large scale surveys documenting the distribution of Western Australia’s fishes and a new field guide to the fishes of southern Australia. Glenn is also responsible for overseeing the development, management and care of the State’s fish collection at the museum. He regularly uses outreach opportunities to engage with the general public, raising awareness about fishes through popular publications, media, public enquiries and citizen science initiatives. He is an active collaborator with researchers from across Australia and around the world and actively engages with Traditional Owners of the Country he works on.
