Robin K. Bagley

Robin K. Bagley's work centers on how new species form and diversify, especially in insects that specialize on particular host plants, such as sawflies, gall wasps, and flies that feed on sunflowers or pine trees. This research uses genetic and ecological data to understand processes like host-plant shifts, environmental adaptation, and dispersal patterns (for example, in glacier ice worms). More recently, Bagley has also contributed to work on scholarly publishing practices, including preprints and journal review processes.

Publication output has been relatively steady but modest over the last decade, peaking around 2020 with 5 publications and averaging about 2 per year over the last 5 years.
