Tucker Plant Systematist and Curator of the Clifton Smith Herbarium at the Santa Barbara Botanic Garden (www.sbbg.org).

I am a botanist and evolutionary biologist with a focus on the plants of western North America, especially the California Floristic Province. I am also focusing a bit on the California Channel Islands, with collaborators and I working on book-length floras for Santa Catalina Island (Guilliams, Junak, et al.) and the California Channel Islands (Guilliams, Hasenstab-Lehman, and Junak). We have also posted single-island checklists on the CCH2.

In addition to a regional focus, I am interested in Boraginaceae subtribe Amsinckiinae (especially Plagiobothrys, Amsinckia, Pectocarya, and Harpagonella; see the Amsinckiinae Working Group website: http://www.sci.sdsu.edu/plants/amsinckiinae/), Montiaceae (especially Calyptridium, Calandrinia, Cistanthe, Lewisia, and Montia), and a scattering of genera not in these families (Dudleya, Eremalche, Malva, Hazardia, Dithyrea, Eriodictyon, Potentilla).

I am always interested in hearing about noteworthy observations on the Central Coast and Channel Islands. Feel free to tag me!
