Italian, male, born on 1 March. B.S. in what used to be Natural Sciences at the University of Padua (which means I studied what one would call natural history). Due to my studies and my personal interest I have some knowledge about botany, zoology and, to a minor extent, geology. I have studied lichens for my academic thesis, but I am now concentrating mainly on plants. I am a modest plant collector and I'm also starting to explore entomology a bit. Interested in Free software and Open Source.

I am currently more or less active in en.wikipedia, it.wikipedia, and commons.

At present:
