Justus Ferdinand Poggenburg I
Justus Ferdinand Poggenburg I was an American botanist.
Together with Nathaniel Lord Britton, Emerson Ellick Sterns and three others, Poggenburg was the author of a catalogue of plants of the New York region that applied the principle of priority more strictly than had been done before, and so caused a rift between American and European botanists.
The standard author abbreviation for Poggenburg when citing a botanical name is Poggenb., and Poggenburg is also included alongside Britton and Sterns in the joint abbreviation "B.S.P.".
