Eugenius Warming

Johannes Eugenius Bülow Warming, known as Eugen Warming, was a Danish botanist and a pioneering figure in the development of ecology.

In 1895 Warming published Plantesamfund, often regarded as the first textbook (1895) on plant ecology, and he taught an early university course in ecology.

The ecologist Robert J. Goodland wrote in 1975: "If one individual can be singled out to be honoured as the founder of ecology, Warming should gain precedence."
