Ignaz Friedrich Tausch
Ignaz Friedrich Tausch (1793, Theusing – 1848) was a Bohemian botanist.
He studied philosophy, medicine and natural sciences at the University of Prague, becoming an associate professor of economic and technical botany in 1816. He is associated with work done at the botanical garden of Emanuel Joseph Malabaila von Canal (1745-1826).[1]
He was the taxonomic authority of many botanical species.[2] Plants bearing the specific epithet of tauschii are named in his honor, e.g. Triticum tauschii.[3] In 1825, Diederich Franz Leonhard von Schlechtendal named the genus Tauschia (family Apiaceae) after him.[1]
