- Adolf Engler, one of the most important botanists of our time, can look back on a life of seventy years today. Born on March 25, 1844 in Sagan, he studied in Breslau from 1863-66, was a teacher there until 1871, became a curator of the botanical institutes in Munich and habilitated in 1872 as a private lecturer. Here he worked on a number of families for the "Flora brasiliensis", also provided other systematic work, notably on the Araceae among others, and studied the plant formations and their conditions of existence in the Alps. In 1878 extraordinary professor of botany and director of the botanical garden in Kiel, he went in 1884 in the same capacity as a successor of Göppert to Wroclaw, where he founded a botanical institute, and in 1889 to Berlin. In Kiel he wrote his main work: "Attempt at a developmental history of the plant world, in particular the floral regions of the Tertiary period" (2 volumes, Leipzig 1879-82). In 1902 he undertook a research trip through a part of East Africa.
