Joseph Friedrich Nicolaus Bornmüller (February 6, 1862 – December 19, 1948) was a German botanist born in Hildburghausen, Thuringia. He studied horticulture in Potsdam, and in 1886 traveled to the Balkans and Greece on his first botanical expedition. In 1887-88 he worked at the botanical garden in Belgrade, and during his subsequent career conducted botanical studies widely throughout the Middle East, Asia Minor and North Africa. In his research, he also visited Greece, Madeira and the Canary Islands. In 1903 he succeeded Heinrich Carl Haussknecht (1838–1903) as curator of the "Haussknecht Herbarium" at Weimar, a position he maintained until 1938. In 1918 he was awarded an honorary professorship from the University of Jena.〔(Bornmüller , Friedrich Nicolaus Joseph ) @ NDB/ADB Deutsche Biographie〕 Among Bornmüller's many publications was a treatise on Macedonian flora titled ''Beiträge zur Flora Mazedoniens'' (1925–1928). The plant genus ''Bornmuellerantha'' from the family Scrophulariaceae is named in his honor. == References == * This article incorporates information based on a translation of an article at the German Wikipedia, whose sources include: * * Robert Zander, Fritz Encke, Günther Buchheim, Siegmund Seybold (Hrsg.): Handwörterbuch der Pflanzennamen. 13.
