Augustin Pyramus de Candolle
Augustin Pyramus de Candolle also spelled
Augustin Pyrame de Candolle (4 February 1778 – 9 September 1841) was a
Swiss botanist.
René Louiche Desfontaines launched de Candolle's botanical career by recommending him at an
herbarium. Within a couple of years de Candolle had established a new genus, and he went on to document hundreds of plant families and create a new natural plant classification system. Although de Candolle's main focus was botany, he also contributed to related fields such as
phytogeography,
agronomy,
paleontology, medical botany, and
economic botany.
