Note 16 — Chapter I · The Botanists of Germany and the Netherlands from Brunfels to Kaspar Bauhin[2].
Henry E. F. (Henry Edward Fowler) Garnsey translation
Kaspar Bauhin was born at Basle in 1550, and like his elder brother John studied under Fuchs; he collected plants in Switzerland, Italy, and France, and became professor in Basle; he died in 1624. Some account is given of him and of his brother by Haller in the preface to his ‘Historia Stirpium Helvetiae’ (1768), and by Sprengel in his ‘Geschichte der Botanik,’ i. p. 364 (1818).
