Maureen Ann Donnelly (born 1954) is an American herpetologist based at Florida International University.




Education and career


She received her B.A. degree from California State University, Fullerton in 1977 and graduated from the University of Miami with her doctorate degree in 1987. Following her Ph.D., she held postdoctoral positions at the American Museum of Natural History and the University of Miami.

Research


Donnelly's research focuses on the ecology, behavior, and conservation of tropical amphibians and reptiles. Donnelly's early research was on the use of space in the early development of tadpoles.
She has examined the loss of amphibians and reptiles, using Costa Rica as a model for global issues with biodiversity.
