TI - Zasługi Eustachego Wołoszczaka w badaniach botanicznych Karpat AB - Eustachy Wołoszczak’s contribution to the botanical research in Carpathians Eustachy Wołoszczak was one of the most prominent botanists who contributed to the research on plants in Carpathians and worked for the Botanic Section of the Physiography Commission of the Academy of Learning in Krakow. A passionate taxonomist and florist, he devoted some of his papers to the Carpathian plants, from Vistula up to Cheremosh. Among his achievements there are numerous pieces on taxonomy, including descriptions of new species, as well as floristic and phytogeographical works. The phytogeographical border drawn from Łupków Pass to the North, along the Osława and San rivers, proposed by him, is, with some modifications, the one which is still approved. During the long years of floristic research, he would critically investigate numerous difficult and little known types of plants. Not only was his contribution to the critical research on the types of willow (Salix), hawkweed (Hieracium), Citysus, Butterworts (Pinguicula), Rosaceae and some other species, tremendous, but he also discovered some new species. His name is famous in the field of plant geography for his synthetic study of the plants of the Western-Eastern Carpathian border. The fieldwork he conducted resulted in perfectly collected and meticulously edited herbaria as well as dissertations and academic notes printed mainly in the “Sprawozdania Komisyi Fizyograficznej” magazine. He spent the last years of his life in Vienna as an active member of the Zoological-Botanical Society, where he devoted his very last moments to floristic research and organizing his great herbarium, the huge part of which has been bequeathed to the Physiography Commission of the Academy of Learning Key words: history, Academy of Learning, Carpathians, botany, Eustachy Wołoszczak VL - 2021 IS - Rok LXVI (2021) PY - 2021 SN - 1642-2503 C1 - 2544-0500 SP - 61 EP - 74 DO - 10.4467/25440500RBN.21.005.16087 UR - https://ejournals.eu/czasopismo/rbn-pau-pan/artykul/zaslugi-eustachego-woloszczaka-w-badaniach-botanicznych-karpat KW - historia KW - Akademia Umiejętności KW - Karpaty KW - botanika KW - Eustachy Wołoszczak
