Life cycles got me into botany; species-richness made me an evolutionary biologist. I’m interested in living and extinct seed plants, especially angiosperms. I like long runs, museums, botanical gardens and rainy days. My daughter is an artist.

Shade-Grown Coffee: Supporting Biodiversity and Farmers’ Livelihoods How scientists and smallholder farmers in Mexico are growing coffee that nurtures both communities and ecosystems.

Did you know that shade-grown coffee plantations can be powerful allies against climate change and biodiversity loss, AND support farming families who rely on coffee for their income? ☕🌳

Come with us to Mexico where our partnership project is shaping these benefits 👇

Mesquite 4.beta2 released! Much faster reading of files with thousands of matrices. New features since 4.beta include Trace All Changes (known from MacClade) and Import GenBank Numbers. www.mesquiteproject.org & discuss at groups.google.com/g/mesquite-p...

Solved the problem with Linux graphics crashes! New build (1073) released, available on GitHub. One specific TextArea.setText(String) call was provoking Java to melt down. Almost certainly a bug in Java. Had to replace that TextArea in the Linux version with something hand-built.

Mesquite 4 beta released! Many new features, esp. phylogenomic. Check out the trailer and longer video on the home page: www.mesquiteproject.org, and use the download link there to get a copy.

Feedback welcome! Ask and discuss on our new Google Group (groups.google.com/g/mesquite-p...).
