Paul Irwin Forster (born 1961) is an Australian botanist. He obtained his doctorate from the University of Queensland in 2004 with his thesis The pursuit of plants : studies on the systematics, ecology and chemistry of the vascular flora of Australia and related regions.
He has worked at the Queensland Herbarium since 1991 as a plant taxonomist and has been editor of Austrobaileya since 2005. His research interests are the systematics of vascular plants and reproductive and conservation biology of cycads.
He has also published extensively on plant-insect interactions ( See, e.g.,) and on the family Apocynaceae.
