Johann Bernhard Wilhelm Lindenberg
Johann Bernhard Wilhelm Lindenberg (18 September 1781 – 6 June 1851) was a German bryologist who worked as a lawyer in Bergedorf (today a burrough of Hamburg). He was a native of Lübeck, and studied law at the Universities of Jena and Göttingen. Lindenberg specialized in research of liverworts, and with Christian Gottfried Daniel Nees von Esenbeck (1776–1858) and Carl Moritz Gottsche (1808–1892) was author of an important treatise on hepaticology titled ''Synopsis Hepaticarum'' (1844–47). The plant genus ''Lindenbergia'' from the family Orobanchaceae is named in his honor.

Karel Kavina
Karel Kavina (September 4, 1890 – January 21, 1948, both in Prague) was a Czech botanist. Kavina was professor of botany at the Technical University in Prague. He worked on systematics, plant morphology and anatomy, and bryology. He published several atlases and monographs and was editor-in-chief of two botanical journals. With Alfred C. Hilitzer he issued the exsiccata ''Cryptogamae Čechoslovenicae exsiccatae, editae ab instituto botanico Polytechnici Pragense, curantibus Prof. Dr. K. Kavina et Doc. Dr. A. Hilitzer'' (1933-1937). In 1938, botanist Albert Pilát published '' Kavinia'', which is a genus of fungi in the Lentariaceae family. The genus contains five species, and has a largely European distribution. It was named in Kavina's honour.

Taxa Named By Johann Bernhard Wilhelm Lindenberg
In biology, a taxon (back-formation from ''taxonomy''; : taxa) is a group of one or more populations of an organism or organisms seen by taxonomists to form a unit. Although neither is required, a taxon is usually known by a particular name and given a particular ranking, especially if and when it is accepted or becomes established. It is very common, however, for taxonomists to remain at odds over what belongs to a taxon and the criteria used for inclusion, especially in the context of rank-based (" Linnaean") nomenclature (much less so under phylogenetic nomenclature). If a taxon is given a formal scientific name, its use is then governed by one of the nomenclature codes specifying which scientific name is correct for a particular grouping. Initial attempts at classifying and ordering organisms (plants and animals) were presumably set forth in prehistoric times by hunter-gatherers, as suggested by the fairly sophisticated folk taxonomies. Much later, Aristotle, and later still ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Liverwort
Liverworts are a group of non-vascular land plants forming the division Marchantiophyta (). They may also be referred to as hepatics. Like mosses and hornworts, they have a gametophyte-dominant life cycle, in which cells of the plant carry only a single set of genetic information. The division name was derived from the genus name '' Marchantia'', named after his father by French botanist Jean Marchant. It is estimated that there are about 9000 species of liverworts. Some of the more familiar species grow as a flattened leafless thallus, but most species are leafy with a form very much like a flattened moss. Leafy species can be distinguished from the apparently similar mosses on the basis of a number of features, including their single-celled rhizoids. Leafy liverworts also differ from most (but not all) mosses in that their leaves never have a costa (present in many mosses) and may bear marginal cilia (very rare in mosses). Other differences are not universal for all ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
