Wilhelm Kirschstein

Wilhelm Kirschstein (2 October 1863 in Groß Behnitz bei Nauen – 1946) was a German schoolteacher and mycologist.

During his career, he taught classes in Rathenow and Berlin-Pankow.[1] As a taxonomist, he described the mycological families Niessliaceae and Mytilinidiaceae [2][3] as well as naming numerous fungi genera and species.

The mycological genera Kirschsteinia Syd., 1906 and Kirschsteiniella Petr., 1923 are named in his honor.[1]

gollark: I did.
gollark: Also not AE2 stuff.
gollark: As I said, no Ender IO is installed.
gollark: Anyone know of good (fast) inscriber automation designs? I've been overhauling my base lately and need one.
gollark: <@148963262535434240> Another thing you could do is make a very efficient but overheating one and add a simple redstone circuit or computer controller to shut it down if heat gets too high (then to turn it on when it cools down).
