Kevin R. Thiele was curator of the Western Australian Herbarium until 2015,[1] and is currently a professor at the University of Western Australia.[2] His research interests include the systematics of the plant families Proteaceae, Rhamnaceae and Violaceae, and the conservation ecology of grassy woodland ecosystems.[1] He is also interested in biodiversity informatics,[1] developing and teaching the develoment of interactive (multiaccess) keys,[3][4][5] and has been involved in the design of software for the Global Biodiversity Information Facility.[1]

He obtained a PhD from the University of Melbourne in 1993, and has since had a number of publications, notably a treatment of the Rhamnaceae for the Flora of Australia series of monographs,[1] and, with Pauline Ladiges, a taxonomic arrangement of Banksia.[6] In 2007 he collaborated with Austin Mast to transfer Dryandra to Banksia.[7]

He has contributed over 2000 images to Wikipedia Commons of Western Australian plants and weeds.[8]
