Richard Spruce 1864 taken upon his return from Brazil
Richard Spruce (10 September 1817 – 28 December 1893) was an English botanist specializing in bryology. One of the great Victorian botanical explorers, Spruce spent 15 years exploring the Amazon from the Andes to its mouth, and was one of the first Europeans to visit many of the places where he collected specimens.[1] Spruce discovered and named a number of new plant species, and corresponded with some of the leading botanists of the nineteenth century.
