Dr Stephen Jury

Teaching:
My teaching remit covers diverse areas of systematics including lectures and courses on: herbarium management and methods, the flora of Great Britain and Ireland, plant identification, economic botany, Mediterranean botany and a field course in S.E. Spain.

Research interests:
These include: European & Mediterranean floristics, especially Spain and Morocco; taxonomy and nomenclature of European, Mediterranean and horticultural plant groups, with special reference to Umbelliferae, Labiatae, petaloid monocotyledons, aromatic species; conservation issues.

Collaborative links:
Natural History Museum (London); Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew; Institut Agronomique et Veterinaire, Hassan II (Rabat, Morocco); Real Jardin Botanico de Madrid; Universidad de Sevilla (Spain); Universidad de Murcia (Spain); Instituto Botanica de Barcelona (Spain); Institut Scientifique, Rabat (Morocco)

Current research projects include:
Euro+Med PlantBase (EU network co-ordinator)
Flora of Morocco (including Darwin Initiative Project)
Flora of Lebanon (including Darwin Initiative Project)
Umbelliferae of the Iberian Peninsula
Systematics of Lavandula and Rosmarinus
Herbarium Information Systems
