Hans Christian Lyngbye June 29, 1782 May 18, 1837 was a Danish priest and Botany botanist , specialising in algae . Life Hans Christian Lyngbye was born in Aalborg , Denmark in 1782, the son of a teacher, Jens Michelsen Lyngbye. He attended the Latin school in Aalborg until 1802 when he took as his tutor a priest on the island of Vendsyssel . He studied botany and theology and graduated in 1812. He then worked with the botanist Niels Hofman Bang which awoke his interest in algae. He won a competition set by the University of Copenhagen and as a result, Hornemann paid for the printing of his work on algae, Tentamen Hydrophytologi Danica , which was published in 1819. It contained meticulous descriptions of 321 species of marine algae with illustrations of 70, including 7 new genera and 50 new species, and raised awareness of the algal flora of Denmark, Norway , the Faroe Islands and Greenland . ref http www.denstoredanske.dk Natur og milj C3 B8 Botanik Botanikere og plantegeografer Hans Christian Lyngbye Hans Christian Lyngbye ref He visited the Faroe Islands in 1817 and wrote a treatise on pilot whale s and whaling. He was also fascinated by the old Faroese fables and ballads and made a collection of them, going so far as to learn the old Faroese language in order to be able to write them down. One of these was Loka T ttur , a rare depiction of Norse gods in folklore. From 1819 he worked as a priest, first at Gjesing and N rager and later on the coast at S borg and Gilleleje. Here he was able to pursue his studies of seaweed . ref http runeberg.org dbl 10 0534.html Lyngbye, Hans Christian ref In 1836 he wrote a Thesis dissertation for a doctorate degree, but it remained forgotten in the pocket of the cloak worn by the messenger conveying it to the University of Copenhagen and it missed the deadline. He died the following year. The botanical part of the thesis was published in 1879. The genus of cyanobacteria blue green algae , Lyngbya , was named in his honour. bot ... more details
