Dr Richard Barnes was for 40 years a staff member of the Department of Zoology of the University of Cambridge, UK, and in 'retirement' he remains attached to that Department and an Emeritus Fellow of St Catharine's College Cambridge. In addition, however, for 3 months of each year he functions as an honorary member of staff of the University of Queensland and of Queensland Museum's Biodiversity Program (October - December inclusive), and likewise (January - March inclusive) of the Department of Zoology of Rhodes University, South Africa.
