Nicolas Charles Seringe (December 3, 1776 – December 29, 1858) was a French physician and botanist born in Longjumeau. He studied medicine in Paris, and subsequently served as a military surgeon. In this role he was involved in the German campaign under General Jean Victor Marie Moreau (1763-1813). Afterwards, he left the army and relocated to Bern, where he developed an interest in botany. From 1801 to 1820, he taught classes in Bern, followed by similar duties in Geneva (1820-1830).〔(BHL ) Taxonomic literature : a selective guide to botanical publications〕 In 1830 he was named director of the ''Jardin de Plantes de Lyon'', and from 1834 he taught classes at the University of Lyon. Seringe belonged to several learned societies, including the Linnean Society of Lyon, of which he was a founding member. Among his written efforts were an 1815 monograph on willows native to Switzerland, a treatise on Swiss cereal grains titled "''Monographie des céréales de la Suisse''" (1818) and a work on cereal grains of Europe called "''Descriptions et figures des céréales européennes''" (1841). The genus ''Seringia'' is named in his honor.〔 == References == * (Societies Savantes de France ) (translated biography and bibliography) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Nicolas Charles Seringe」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
