英国皇家学会院士、植物学家和古植物学家--Dukinfield Henry Scott (FRS, 1854--1943)

中文摘要：在以往的工作中我们对英国古植物学的历史和现状进行了概述，但还有大量的工作要做。为了探讨英国伦敦皇家植物园（邱园）（Royal Gardens at Kew, London）与古植物学的渊源，本期《古植物学的故事》介绍英国著名的植物学家和古植物学家--Dukinfield Henry Scott (FRS, 1854--1943)。1892—1906年，Dukinfield H. Scott担任邱园Jodrell 实验室无薪主管（Honorary Keeper of the Jodrell Laboratory,Royal Kew Gardens）。Dukinfield H. Scott不仅是英国现代植物解剖学的代表人物，而且是化石植物解剖学的先驱人物。1894年，Dukinfield H. Scott当选为英国皇家学会院士。Dukinfield H. Scott是世界古植物学史上的著名古植物学家，不过，他生活在著名古植物学家Sir Albert Charles Seward（1863--1941）的盛名之下。
