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]
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]
