New Editor | Mark Hughes, coordinating editor for taxonomy and systematics
NJB welcomes Mark Hughes as a coordinating editor!
Mark Hughes is a new coordinating editor for taxonomy and systematics.
Mark is the leader of Southeast Asian biodiversity science at the RBGE, working on using floristic and specimen-linked data to understand broad scale patterns of diversity in the region and support its conservation. He also researches the systematics of Begoniaceae and Memecylaceae, working on species discovery and revision, and biogeography and he is a taxonomic expert for the World Flora Online.
At NJB, Mark will contribute his expertise to help us develop the scope and formatting of taxonomy articles. And perhaps he will even handle the one or other Begonia manuscript for us!
