Jean-Louis Kralik
View on Wikipedia
Jean-Louis Kralik (1813, Strasbourg – 1892, Tresserve) was a French botanist.[1]
He worked as a professor in Strasbourg, and for a period of time was curator of Philip Barker Webb's herbarium. From 1855 to 1885 he was curator of Ernest Cosson's herbarium. As a botanical collector, he conducted extensive investigation of North African flora on expeditions to Algeria, Tunisia and Egypt.[2] Kralik distributed herbarium specimens in three exsiccatae, namely Plantes Corses 1849, Reliquiae Mailleanae and Algae Schousboeanae.[3][4][5][6]. The later two series distributed material collected by the botanists Alphonse Maille and Peter Schousboe.
The genus Kralikia (synonym Tripogon) was named in his honor by Cosson and Michel Charles Durieu de Maisonneuve.[7][8]
