Gràcies a les filogènies de rèptils i amfibis, el grup de recerca estudia com la biodiversitat es genera i es mantén. També n’estudia els patrons biogeogràfics i evolutius amb l’objectiu de revisar la taxonomia de rèptils i amfibis, així com per conservar-los. Tot i que la recerca que duu a terme inclou una gran diversitat de grups de rèptils i amfibis, el seu principal interès són les faunes de la conca del Mediterrani i Aràbia, incloent-hi algunes illes oceàniques i continentals, com és el cas de les Illes Canàries, Cap Verd i l’Arxipèlag de Socotra.
