Barbara Ann Whitlock (born 1967)[1] is a botanist, who earned a Ph.D. from Harvard University, with her dissertation Systematics and evolution of chocolate and its relatives (Sterculiaceae or Malvaceae s.l.) c. 2000,[2] an interest which continues.[3]

She has been working in the Department of Biology, University of Miami from at least 2015,[3] where she works on tropical (plant) biology, and ecology and evolutionary biology.[4][5]

Much of her work centres on Malvaceae and related phylogeny.[6][7][8][9]

She has published 39 names,[1] including Androcalva fraseri, and Commersonia borealis. (See also Taxa named by Barbara Ann Whitlock.)
