Sébastien René Lenormand (2 April 1796 in Condé-sur-Noireau – 10 December 1871) was a French lawyer and botanist who specialized in the field of phycology. From 1817 he studied law in Paris, and following graduation (1820), practiced law in the town of Vire. In 1835 he quit the legal profession, moved to an estate called "Lénaudières", from where he focused his energies towards botany.〔(Notice biographique sur Sébastien René Lenormand by Jules Morière ) obituary〕 As a botanist, he created an impressive herbarium, consisting mainly of algae species. Although he never left France, he collected a large number of botanical specimens from naturalists who travelled to all parts of the globe.〔(Flora Malesiana ser. 1, 1: Cyclopaedia of collectors ) Nationaalherbarium Lenormand〕 The algae genus ''Lenormandia'' (family Rhodomelaceae) was named in his honor by Otto Wilhelm Sonder in 1845.〔(BHL ) Taxonomic literature : a selective guide to botanical publications〕〔(Algaebase ) Lenormandia Sonder, 1845.〕 == Written works == * ''Note sur l'emploi du sulfure de carbone pour la conservation des herbiers'' (1858) – On the usage of sulfur and carbon for preservation of herbaria. * ''Catalogue des plantes recueillies a Cayenne'' (1859, with Émile Deplanche) – Catalog of plants collected in Cayenne.〔(WorldCat Search ) publications〕 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「Sébastien René Lenormand」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
