1726 Flowers & Plants of Europe BOTANY Caspar Bauhin Pinax Illustrated 2v SET

Gaspard Bauhin, or Caspar Bauhin (1560 – 1624), was a Swiss botanist whose Phytopinax (1596) described thousands of plants and classified them in a manner that draws comparisons to the later binomial nomenclature of Linnaeus. He was a disciple of the famous Italian physician Girolamo Mercuriale and he also worked on human anatomical nomenclature. Linnaeus honored the Bauhin brothers Gaspard and Jean in the genus name Bauhinia.
