Moisés Santiago Bertoni

Mosè Giacomo Bertoni (1857–1929), known in Spanish as Moisés Santiago Bertoni, was an Italian-speaking Swiss-Paraguayan naturalist, botanist and anarchist writer.

[1] While conducting research in eastern Paraguay in 1899, he was the first to describe Stevia.

His botanical collections are conserved at the Sociedad Científica del Paraguay,[2] and were afterwards restored by the Conservatoire et Jardin botaniques de la Ville de Genève (Switzerland).
