Biography

  • Director, N.C.W. Beadle Herbarium (NE)
  • Plant Systematist

Research Interests

My main research interests are in the biology, ecology and systematics of Cyperaceae. I am part of the international network of researchers working on the Cyperaceae. My contributions to the Flora of North America (see below) were published in Volume 23 (2002).

I also have been and am involved in studies on a wide range of Australian plant groups (including ferns, wattles, Myrtaceae, Euphorbiaceae, Phyllanthaceae, Juncaceae, etc.)

Specific research projects currently in progress

  • Floral development in Cyperaceae: What is a Flower?
  • Sedge Genera of the World
  • Photosynthetic pathway variation in Cyperaceae
  • Species and other taxonomic limits in the Cyperaceae.
  • Phylogeny of Cyperaceae. Current work is particularly focussed on Schoeneae
  • Flora of Australia treatments of some sedges and 'spurges'
