Ludwig Adolph Timotheus Radlkofer (1829 Munich – 1927 Munich), was a Bavarian taxonomist and botanist. Radlkofer became a physician in 1854 and earned a PhD in botany at Jena the following year. He became an associate professor of botany at the University of Munich in 1859 as well as deputy director of the botanical garden and herbarium. In 1892 he was named director of the Botanical Museum. He was made emeritus professor in 1913 and died in 1927 in the same room in which he was born. Radlkofer's main work was on the family Sapindaceae. His collections, sent by botanists from all over the world, are housed in Munich. The South African flower ''Greyia radlkoferi'' is named for him, as are the genera ''Radlkoferotoma'' and the former ''Radlkoferella''〔(CRC World Dictionary of Plant Names: R-Z ) by Umberto Quattrocchi〕 (a wastebasket genus now called ''Pouteria''). Among his numerous written works was "New and noteworthy Hawaiian plants", a treatise that was published in English in 1911.〔(Biodiversity Heritage Library ) New and noteworthy Hawaiian plants〕 ==References== *(Botanists at Munich University ) 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「Ludwig Adolph Timotheus Radlkofer」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
