Andreas Allescher
Andreas Allescher (6 June 1828, in Munich – 10 April 1903, in Munich) was a German schoolteacher and mycologist.Following training at the teachers' seminar in Freising, he spent several years teaching classes in Haag an der Amper, Munich and Engedey (near Berchtesgaden). In 1862 he returned to Munich, where he spent many years as a teacher at several facilities, including a post as an instructor at the district teachers' seminar (from 1872).
He made important contributions regarding fungi imperfecti to Rabenhorst's ''Kryptogamen-Flora'' series. Together with Johann Nepomuk Schnabl he edited the exsiccata series ''Fungi Bavarici'' (no. 1 - no. 700).
The mycological genera ''Allescheria'' (in Cenangiaceae family) in 1899, ''Allescheriella'' (in Botryobasidiaceae family) in 1897, and ''Allescherina'' (in Diatrypaceae family) in 1902, commemorate his name. Provided by Wikipedia
