For more information, please contact [email protected]. Antecedent Wetland Ecologists - German and Austrian in the Ninetieth Century Abstract Please note that this is the first of a series in WSP. Many of the people, and even institutions, who influenced the development of the wetland science as a field have recently died or closed, and many other pioneering wetland scientists have retired or will soon retire. Given this, we would like to capture the early history of our science by getting the people who created it to write about their reasons for becoming wetland scientists and their contributions to the field. This series of articles will focus on two major topics: (1) the contributions of major scientists working in wetlands to the development of wetland science, and (2) the roles of major wetland institutions and organizations in the development of wetland science. -

Heinrich Schenck
Heinrich Schenck Johann Heinrich Rudolf Schenck (* 31. Januar 1860 in Siegen; † 25. Juni 1927 in Darmstadt) war ein deutscher Botaniker und Hochschulprofessor. Sein offizielles botanisches Autorenkürzel lautet „SCHENCK“. Inhaltsverzeichnis Biografie Ehrungen Werke Literatur Weblinks Einzelnachweise Biografie Johann Heinrich Rudolf Schenck wurde im Januar 1860 als Sohn des Dr. med. Martin Schenck und seiner Ehefrau Johanna Dressler in Siegen geboren. Er studierte von 1879 bis 1880 Naturwissenschaften an der Universität Bonn und von 1881 bis 1882 an der Universität Berlin. In Berlin waren seine Lehrer insbesondere August Wilhelm Eichler und Simon Schwendener. Von 1882 bis 1883 war er wieder in Bonn und wurde dort 1884 bei Eduard Strasburger zum Dr. phil. promoviert. 1886/1887 unternahm er zusammen mit Andreas Franz Wilhelm Schimper eine Forschungsreise nach Brasilien, wo sie unter anderem bei Johann Friedrich Theodor Müller in Blumenau waren. 1889 wurde Schenck Privatdozent an der Universität Bonn und erhielt 1896 einen Ruf auf den Lehrstuhl für Botanik an der Polytechnischen Hochschule Darmstadt. Gleichzeitig wurde er zum Direktor des Botanischen Gartens in Darmstadt ernannt. Als Schenck am 1. Oktober 1896 seinen Dienst an der TH Darmstadt antrat, war der bisher eigenständige Botanische Garten der Universität angegliedert worden. Schencks Forschungsinteresse galt den Wasserpflanzen, bei denen er vor allem den histologischen Bau sowie die Lebensbedingungen erforschte. Seine Ergebnisse auf diesem Gebiet fasste er in der ersten ökologischen Monographie über diese Gruppe zusammen. Weiter erforschte er die Morphologie, Histologie und Ökologie der Lianen. Er war Mitbegründer und bis zur 16. Auflage Mitherausgeber des Strasburger. Sein Bruder Adolf hat sich als Geograph, Mineraloge und Botaniker einen Namen gemacht. -

STRASBURGER, F. NOLL,H.SCHENCK and A. F. W. SCHIMPER th 36 edition, revised by ANDREAS BRESINSKY,CHRISTIAN KÖRNER, JOACHIM W. KADEREIT,GUNTHER NEUHAUS and UWE SONNEWALD. Spektrum Akademischer Verlag, Heidelberg 2008 The founders of this textbook were botany docents at the University of Bonn (Ger- many). They constantly exchanged scientific insights and cooperated in their teaching ac- tivities. Their objective in publishing the first edition of the Strasburger Textbook was to share their accumulated knowledge. Eduard Strasburger wrote the introduction and the chapter on morphology, Fritz Noll the physiology part, Heinrich Schenck the cryptogams, and Andreas Franz Wilhelm Schimper the phanerogams. Although each author primarily was responsible for his part, there was still a strong cooperation provided by the ongoing contacts among the coauthors so that in spite of the plurality of authors the book with its four parts appeared as a genuine unity. According to the preface of the first edition (1894) this textbook was intended to be used by students at high schools to advance their scientific interest, knowledge, and percep- tions. At the same time the book also considered the practical aspects of botanical studies, especially in medicine and pharmacy. -

As the second chapter of the series about Rudolf Schlechter’s South-American Orchids, a background of the orchidological work by foreign and Brazilian orchidologists in southern Brazil is outlined, as well as the history of the most important botanical institutions in this region. In order to establish coherent geographical units, the institutions, botanists and collectors mentioned in this chapter are those whose main activity concentrated in the Brazilian part of the La Plata River Basin, or in other words, the Brazilian states including and southwards of Matto Grosso, Minas Gerais and Espirito Santo. The most important figures in Schlechter’s Brazilian “network” are presented, with short biographical notes and description of their most important botanical exploits.
