Rudolf Raimann (botanist)

Rudolf Raimann (1863 – 5 December 1896 in Vienna) was an Austrian botanist.[1]

In 1889 he received his doctorate from the University of Vienna, where his influences included botanist Julius Wiesner. He worked as a volunteer in the department of botany at the Imperial Natural History Museum,[2] and for a period of time taught classes in natural history at the Handelsakademie (school of business and commerce) in Vienna.[3] The plant genus Raimannia (J.N. Rose ex N.L. Britton & A. Brown, 1913) of the family Onagraceae commemorates his name.[4][5]

Published works

He made contributions in regards to the section on Onagraceae in Engler and Prantl's Die Natürlichen Pflanzenfamilien. A few of his other writings include:

gollark: This is not how the dilemma is defined.
gollark: Oh, so you're dragging in ethics to shift the payoff matrix?
gollark: ???
gollark: If you do have very accurate models it runs into confusing recursions, but causally speaking it's still better to defect.
gollark: I mean, if you don't have the opponent's source code/very accurate models, it is in all cases better to defect than cooperate. That is basically what "strictly better" means.
