About

Michael Archer is a Professor at the University of New South Wales in Australia. His research areas include the study of fossil mammals, Mesozoic origins of monotremes, and Miocene fauna, with notable contributions to the understanding of ancient ecosystems through his recent publications. Among his works are findings on new species of marsupials and frogs from the Riversleigh World Heritage area, and the exploration of cranial structures in fossil birds. His scholarship significantly enriches the field of palaeobiology and ecological history.
