Varrick Nazari, PhD

Postdoctoral fellow, Dipartimento di Biologia, Università Degli Studi di Padova, Italy
Biocultural diversity in Italy: First step of research on its evolutionary patterns

Skills

I am a Canadian evolutionary biologist and entomologist from Ottawa, Ontario, Canada. I received his MSc from University of Alberta (2006) and PhD from University of Guelph (2011). My main areas of research include Lepidopteran taxonomy, biogeography, molecular systematics and phylogenetics. I also have an interest in cultural entomology, i.e. presence and role of butterflies and moths in the arts and cultures of peoples across the world.

Biography

I became fascinated with butterflies at the age of 10, when I accidentally caught a scarce swallowtail (Iphiclides podalirius) while playing badminton with his cousin. I then found books on how to collect and preserve butterflies properly and started a butterfly collection that later won my high school’s show and tell award. 

After receiving my undergraduate degree as a linguistic interpreter, I was hired as a technician at the Hayk Mirzayans Insect Museum (HMIM) and then as an assistant curator of entomology at the National Museum of Natural History (MMTT) for seven years. For three years during this period I also held the position of the executive secretary of the National Biodiversity Strategy and Action Plan (NBSAP), implemented by the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) and the Global Environmental Fund (GEF) and the Department of Environment.

In 2003 I began my MSc program in molecular phylogenetics and evolution (of swallowtail butterflies) at the University of Alberta at Felix Sperling’s lab. Upon receiving my MSc from the department of Biological Sciences at University of Alberta, I conducted doctoral research in molecular taxonomy and DNA barcoding of Lepidoptera under the supervision of Paul Hebert at the University of Guelph in Ontario, Canada.

From 2011 to 2019 I was an assistant curator of entomology at the Canadian National Collection of Insects, Arachnids and Nematodes. Since 2022 I am a postdoctoral fellow at the uniersity of Padova in Italy. I have authored or co-authored more than 75 scientific papers and several books in the fields of insect taxonomy, cultural entomology, and molecular phylogenetics of butterflies and moths.

Interests

I developed a passion for butterflies as a child, and from early childhood I have been collecting and studying these insects with a passion. I have published numerous articles in leading journals in my field and continue to strive to find answers to interesting questions that pick my curiosity. I am an advocate for open access science and a consultant for wildlife conservation organizations. I enjoy collaborating with my peers on various research projects and have presented the results of my research in numerous conferences across the world. I also have an interest in cultural entomology, i.e. presence and role of butterflies and moths in the arts and cultures of peoples across the world. I takes solace in helping people and volunteering for the homeless and those in need. I hope to someday start an NGO dedicated to victims of social injustice and police brutality. In my spare time, I enjoy reading, movies, and playing guitar.

Seminar on Enhanced species discovery and taxonomy of micro-moths using DNA barcoding

What is Entomology?

Entomology is a branch of Zoology focused on the scientific study of insects and arachnids. As a fundamental and taxon-based discipline, entomology contributes to a wide range of biological and zoological fields such as molecular genetics, behavior, neuroscience, biomechanics, biochemistry, systematics, physiology, developmental biology, ecology, morphology, and paleontology. Entomologists usually specialize in particular groups of insects or aspects of their life; they may be interested in the relationship of certain insects to the environment or humans, or in the evolutionary relationships between insect groups or between certain insects and their hosts or parasites.

The relationship between insects and humans dates back to pre-historic times through agriculture and bee-keeping. Insects appear in cave paintings and in cuneiform and hieroglyphic writings from Ancient Mesopotamia and Egypt. In the Western world, Greek philosophers Aristotle and Pliny were the first to write about insects, even though their ideas were not exactly scientific. Scientific study of insects in the modern sense began relatively recently, in the 16th and 17th centuries in Europe. Butterflies have been especially of interest because of their metamorphosis, which was taken as a symbol of death and rebirth by the ancients. Listen to his presentation here if you want to learn more: https://vimeo.com/manage/videos/707518176

Lepidopterists are entomologists who study insects in the order Lepidoptera, i.e. butterflies and moths. In a former discussion on “barcoding species for Quarantine/plant protection”, I mentioned that DNA barcoding simplifies the process of sorting specimens. Listen to this presentation here if you want to learn more: https://vimeo.com/10036905

Protecting biodiversity for future generations is now a universal goal, and insects are a crucial component of the biodiversity puzzle. I believe that we cannot protect what we do not know. The process of discovery and description of new species is a specialized task that can be facilitated only through collaborative work with museums and other specialists. DNA barcoding is among the newest tools that allows biologists everywhere to sort specimens and discover undescribed species in a fast and cost-effective way.
