Jonas Carlsson Dryander (5 March 1748 – 19 October 1810) was a Swedish botanist.

He was the son of Carl Leonard Dryander and Brita Maria Montin.

[1] Dryander's publications included Catalogus bibliothecae historico-naturalis Josephi Banks (1796-1800).

In 1784, he was elected a foreign member of the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences.

The genus Dryandra was named in his honour by his friend and fellow scientist Carl Peter Thunberg (1743–1828)[2] and Robert Brown named Grevillea dryandri in his honour.
