August Neilreich

August Neilreich (12 December 1803, Vienna 1 June 1871) was an Austrian lawyer and botanist.

August Neilreich

He studied law at the University of Vienna, eventually attaining the position of Oberlandesgericht Rath. At the age of 53 he was forced into early retirement from the legal profession due to illness.

As a young man, he was inspired by the botanical work of Ludwig Ritter von Köchel (1800-1877). Although he is largely known for investigations of flora native to Vienna and Lower Austria, he published works on plants found throughout the Austrian Empire.

The plant genus Neilreichia was named in his honour by Eduard Fenzl (1808–1879). His name is also associated with the species Asperula neilreichii (Eastern Alps-Meier).[1]

gollark: Also, they can't emit IR and cook me, *or* emit (much) RF and probably somewhat break electronic stuff.
gollark: Obviously we need monitors which can properly represent laser videos, by blinding oyu.
gollark: To be able to emit ionizing radiation, yes.
gollark: Most monitors can't even generate a lot of *visible* spectrum colors, even. There are a bunch of color space diagrams of this on the internet, except they're not a very good way to show it because, unsurprisingly, the cyan-ish bit they can't display well just looks like identical cyan.
gollark: That would just allow per-*column* control, unless you scan them left and right really fast.
