Jens Lind (botanist)

Jens Wilhelm August Lind (1 March 1874, in Nykøbing Mors – 4 October 1939, in Viborg) was a Danish apothecary, botanist and mycologist.

He was a pupil of Emil Rostrup and published a full account of all fungi collected in Denmark by Rostrup.

[3] Combining his pharmaceutical and mycological knowledge, he was early in experimenting on chemical control of plant pathogens and recommending it to other practitioners.

He also - together with Knud Jessen - wrote an account on the immigration history of weeds to Denmark.
