Axel L. Schönhofer (also spelled Schoenhofer)

Birthdate: 3 January 1976

Birthplace: Mainz, Germany

Co-authors: J. Martens, M.T. Marx, T. Novak, H. Wijnhoven, M. Hedin, J. Shultz.

BIOGRAPHY: Axel Schönhofer is currently a Post-Doc fellow of Marshal Hedin at the San Diego State University to work on Opiliones biogeography and systematics. He studied in Mainz, Germany, were he also did his PhD with Jochen Martens on the European family Trogulidae. Main interest are the Dyspnoi for which he is subject editor for Zootaxa (+Eupnoi).

DISCLAIMER — This resource was first intended as for private use of the members of the arachnology lab of Museu Nacional, but later we thought "why not to share this with the world?". Eventually if greedy lawyers (redundance...) start to bother us with copyright matters, etc, we may have to be forced to quit the project and keep this just to ourselves.
