Ernst Østrup

Ernst Vilhelm Østrup (21 September 1845, in Roskilde – 16 April 1917, in Frederiksberg) was a Danish botanist and phycologist, mainly working on diatoms.

In 1873 he received his ''cand. polyt.'' degree, and later worked as a schoolteacher in Copenhagen. His diatom research largely dealt with species found in Denmark, Greenland, Iceland, Faeroe Islands and Jan Mayen.

The diatom genus ''Oestrupia'' (Heiden) and the species ''Diploneis oestrupii'' (Hust.), ''Surirella oestrupii'' (Gran) and ''Navicula oestrupii'' (Cleve) are all named in his honour. Provided by Wikipedia
