From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Evan Benjamin Gareth Jones (born 1937) is a British mycologist. His main area of research interest is aquatic fungi, particularly marine fungi. He has supervised about 100 PhD and MSc students, published approximately 600 research articles and is a highly cited scientist. Other research interests include marine biofouling, biodeterioration of materials, and wood decay by fungi.[1]

Jones earned a PhD from the University of Leeds in 1963, where his supervisors were Irene Manton and David Jennings.[1]
