Gustave Beauverd (1867–1942) was a Swiss botanist, specializing in Pteridophytes, Bryophytes, and Spermatophytes. [1]
For a period of time he worked at the " Herbier Bossier", [2] and is remembered for his investigations of the genus Melampyrum. [3] He was a co-author of the series "Icones florae Alpinae plantarum", [4] and the author of many works on diverse botanical subjects. In 1931 he became a member of the Société botanique de France. [5]
He is the taxonomic authority of the genera Berroa, Parantennaria, Psychrophyton and Stuckertiella. [6] The genus Beauverdia (family Alliaceae) was named after him by Wilhelm Gustav Franz Herter, [7] and plants with the specific epithet of beauverdiana honor him, [8] examples being Acacia beauverdiana and Photinia beauverdiana
