  Alessandro is Zootaxa editor for Nomenclature and Myriapoda and also editor of the online resource ChiloBase where all genus and species level names in the Chilopoda are listed. In one of his taxonomic papers published in Zootaxa he co-authored the description of Scolopendropsis duplicata, a scolopendromorph species with 39 or 42 legpairs, approximately twice as many as in all remaining scolopendromorphs known thus far. Alessandro's current projects are largely in the field of evolutionary developmental biology.
