Jacob Utsch
Jacob Utsch (8 September 1824, Erndtebrück – 3 August 1901, Freudenberg) was a German physician and botanist, who specialized in the plant genus Rubus.[1]
He studied medicine at the Universities of Bonn, Marburg, Halle and Berlin, obtaining his doctorate at the latter institution in 1849.[2] From 1852 he practiced medicine in Freudenberg, where he later attained the title of Sanitätsrat. As a botanist he collected specimens mainly in the vicinity of Freudenberg.[3]
In 1896 he published a work on Rubus hybrids titled Hybriden im Genus Rubus.[4] He is also known for his treatment of the genus Rubus in Konrad Beckhaus's comprehensive Flora von Westfalen ("Flora of Westphalia", 1893).[3]
