Jean Baptiste Marie Joseph Solange Eugène Ripart (15 May 1815, [1] Bessines – 17 October 1878, Bourges) was a French physician, botanist and mycologist.
During his career, he worked as a physician in Bourges. He conducted investigations of cryptogams and performed research of the genera Rosa and Rubus. [2] [3] With Pierre Alfred Déséglise (Rosa) and Léon Gaston Genevier (Rubus), he described numerous botanical species. [4]
The mycological genera of Ripartitella Singer, 1947 and Ripartites P.Karst., 1879 as well as the former plant genus Ripartia Gdgr., 1881 (which is now a synonym of Rosa, [5]), all commemorate his name. [6] [7]
