Legg\" \/><\/div>David Legg is a research fellow at the Oxford University Museum of Natural History.  His research is focussed mainly at deciphering the interrelationships of fossil and living arthropods, particularly the role fossils play in influencing our understanding of modern groups. As well as phylogenetics, David has a passion for Cambrian arthropods and has spent much of the past five years working on material from the Burgess Shale and describing new species of arthropods, including the bivalved arthropod <i>Nereocaris exilis<\/i> and the \u2018great-appendage\u2019 arthropod <i>Kootenichela deppi<\/i>.","link":"https:\/\/www.palaeontologyonline.com\/?tag=david_legg","name":"David A.
