Carl Borivoj Presl
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Karel Bořivoj Presl (1794 – 1852) was a Bohemian botanist.
He lived all his life in Prague, and was a professor at the University of Prague. He made an expedition to Sicily in 1817, and published a Flora bohemica in 1820.
His older brother Jan Svatopluk Presl was also a noted botanist; the journal Preslia of the Czech Botanical Society is named in their honor.
