Maxwell Tylden Masters (April 15, 1833 - May 30, 1907) was an English botanist and taxonomist. His most famous works are perhaps Vegetable Teratology, which dealt with teratology (abnormal mutations) of vegetable species, and several works on Chinese plants (particularly conifers), describing many of the new species discovered by Ernest Henry Wilson.
