Karl Schliephacke (2 August 1834, Halberstadt – 3 June 1913, Blasewitz) was German bryologist known for his studies of sphagnum mosses. [1]
Biography
From 1851 he worked as an apprentice at the Löwenapotheke in Halle, and during his time spent in Halle he studied under bryologist Karl Müller. [2] From 1859 onward, [3] he worked in the lignite and mineral oil industries, of which, he is credited with the founding of several factories. During his career as an industrialist he held positions in Jeziorki ( Galicia), Rehmsdorf (near Zeitz), Upper Röblingen and in Waldau (1873–1898). [4]
