Jean Marie Bosser

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Jean Marie Bosser [1] (23 December 1922 - 6 December 2013, France), sometimes listed as Jean-Michel Bosser [2] was a French botanist and agronomical engineer that worked extensively on Madagascar and Mauritius.

Bosser was a member of the Laboratoire de Phanérogamie at the Muséum national d'histoire naturelle in Paris. He was the director of ORSTOM (Office de la recherche scientifique et technique outre-mer, now Institut de recherche pour le développement) in Antananarivo, Madagascar. Together with Thérésien Cadet and Joseph Guého he belongs to the contributors of the booklet series Flore des Mascareignes which is published in co-oporation by the Institut de recherche pour le développement (IRD), the Mauritius Sugar Industry Research Institute (MSIRI), and the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew since 1974 and is a comprehensive work about the flora of Mauritius, Réunion, and Rodrigues. Bosser described numerous new species from Madagascar and the Mascarenes, such as Bulbophyllum labatii, Cynanchum staubii and Cynanchum guehoi. As of June 2012 the International Plant Names Index (IPNI) listed 305 taxa (including many orchids)[3] which were described by Bosser as author or as co-author.
