 | | Frost is interested in the evolutionary origin and diversification of reptiles and amphibians, as well as the underlying epistemological issues of knowledge claims in evolutionary biology. |
 | | As part of this effort, Dr. Frost recently formulated a revised classification for the entire Iguania, a group of about 1000 species found in the Americas, Madagascar, and Fiji and Tonga. |
 | | At the other extreme, Dr. Frost maintains a very large online taxonomic catalogue of the world's living amphibians, found at http://research.amnh.org/herpetology/amphibia/index.html, which provides the nomenclatural history, available English names, geographic distribution, and a digest of the relevant literature regarding the taxon. |
