Dr. Charles M. Clarke (born in Melbourne, Australia) is an ecologist and botanist specialising in the carnivorous plant genus ''Nepenthes''. Clarke has an honours degree in Botany from Monash University in Melbourne, and a Ph.D. in Ecosystem Management at the University of New England, in Armidale, New South Wales. Clarke first travelled to Borneo in search of pitcher plants in 1987. In 1989 and 1990 he lived in Brunei, studying the ecology of ''Nepenthes''. In between travels, Clarke has taught Ecology and Biometrics at James Cook University in Queensland, and worked as a horticultural consultant in Hong Kong. He now works at the Monash University Malaysia Campus.〔(Dr Charles Clarke ). Monash University.〕 Clarke has written five books and guides on ''Nepenthes'', which present a synthesis of the research performed on his travels around the Malay Archipelago. The most significant of these works are the monographs ''Nepenthes of Borneo'' (1997) and ''Nepenthes of Sumatra and Peninsular Malaysia'' (2001).〔Clarke, C. 2002. (Twelve years of ecological research on ''Nepenthes'' in Southeast Asia - some personal highlights. ) ''Proceedings of the 4th International Carnivorous Plant Conference, Hiroshima University, Tokyo'': 1–7.〕 Clarke has described six species of ''Nepenthes'': ''N. baramensis'' (now known as ''N. hemsleyana''〔Scharmann, M. & T.U.
