Chatur Ullu Lab
About the lab
Chatur Ullu Lab mainly works on dragonflies (chatur) and owls (ullu), and everything they interact with!
This is an evolutionary ecology and conservation lab group of people working with Dr Pankaj Koparde at MIT World Peace University, Pune, India.
We are interested in science-driven conservation research and outreach, and understanding ecological and evolutionary processes that shape life.
We have a trans disciplinary approach towards addressing questions in ecology & conservation.
Our focal areas of research are:
Biogeography & Phylogeny
Diversity & Distribution
Urban Ecology
Biodiversity Informatics
We are actively involved in the outreach through popular media and citizen science.
If you are interested, we can find ways to work together!

Featured research (2)
Oviposition behaviour of three Indian Elattoneura spp. is described and discussed. Endophytic oviposition in dry rigid substrates away from water by the endemic E. nigerrima and E. tetrica is recorded; this differs from the typical recorded use of submerged vegetation substrates in the genus. Contrasting behavioural observation of oviposition in E. campioni is also discussed.
