He is known for being one of the first to study and categorise plants from the American continents, publishing ''Nova genera et species plantarum quas in peregrinatione ad plagam aequinoctialem orbis novi collegerunt Bonpland et Humboldt'' (7 vols., Paris, 1815–1825).

Johann Jakob Roemer
Johann Jacob Roemer (8 January 1763, Zurich – 15 January 1819) was a physician and professor of botany in Zurich, Switzerland. He was also an entomologist. With Austrian botanist Joseph August Schultes, he published the 16th edition of Carl Linnaeus' ''Systema Vegetabilium''.

Schellenberg, an entomologist himself and therefore familiar with structural details. In 1793, he was elected a foreign member of the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences. The botanical genus '' Roemeria'' from the family Papaveraceae is named after him. Works *''Magazin für die Botanik'', vols. 1–4; 1787–1791, with publicist Paul Usteri (1768-1831).
