Richard Lawrence Pyle, Ph.D. (born 24 March 1967) is a scuba diver and ichthyologist working on Hawaii.[1][2]
Pyle discovered the principle of "Pyle stops" when decompressing from many deep dives in search of new species of fish, and has identified hundreds of new species.[3][4]
He is the author of over 130 publications.[1]
In October 2015, he won second prize, an award of €5,000, in the GBIF Ebbe Nielsen Challenge, a Global Biodiversity Information Facility competition, for BioGUID.org, "a web service that crosslinks identifiers linked to data objects in the biodiversity realm".[5] At that time, the site contained over one billion (1,000,000,000) identifiers.[5] He has been honoured by having the twilight fangblenny (Petroscirtes pylei) named in his honor.[6]
Pyle is a member of ZooBank Committee and the leader of ZooBank architecture policy working group.[7]
