Martin Roy Cheek (born 1960) is a botanist and taxonomist at the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew. [1]
Cheek attended the University of Reading, graduating with a B.Sc. in 1981 and a M.Sc. in 1983. He earned his DPhil at the University of Oxford in 1989. [1]
With Matthew Jebb, Cheek revised the pitcher plant genus Nepenthes in two major monographs: a skeletal revision in 1997 [2] and a more in-depth treatment of the Malesian species for Flora Malesiana in 2001. [3]
In these and other works, Cheek has described a number of species new to science, often in collaboration with Jebb. These include: N. abalata, [4] N. abgracilis, [5] N. alzapan, [6] N. argentii, [2] N. aristolochioides, [2] N. cid, [5] N. danseri, [2] N. diatas, [2] N. extincta, [7] N. hurrelliana, [8] N. kitanglad, [7] N. kurata, [7] N. lamii, [2] N. leyte, [7] N. mira, [9] N. murudensis, [2] N. negros, [10] N. ramos, [11] N. robcantleyi, [12] N. samar, [13] N. thai, [14] and N. ultra. [15] Cheek and Jebb also raised N. macrophylla to species rank. [2]
Cheek and his research are featured in the documentary The Mists of Mwanenguba. [16]
