Botany is a broad field, so there are many types of botanists. Some focus on specific areas like:
* Plant ecologists: Study how plants interact with their environment and other organisms.
* Plant taxonomists: Classify and name plants.
* Plant physiologists: Study how plants function, including their growth, metabolism, and reproduction.
* Plant geneticists: Study the genetics of plants and how to improve them.
So, while "botanist" is the general term, the specific type of botanist studying plant life in an environment might be called a plant ecologist.
