A. Müll.* \[standard form in IPNI: *F.A.Müll.*\] #### Herbarium and types [[Collection DR|DR]]; see IH for various sets of plants, especially from Sardinia (coll. 1827-1828). *Exsiccatae* (under "Friedrich Müller"): *Kryptogamen Sachsens undder angränzenden Gegenden*, cent. 1-11, 1830-1831; sets at [[Collection DR|DR]], [[Collection GLM|GLM]]. #### Name Grummann cites archival research by F. A. Meyer (Jena) which shows that the official tenant of the Schneeberg apothecary was baptized Franz August Müller (b. 2 Dec 1798; not 29 Nov 1799) and not Friedrich. There having been no other official pharmacist Müller at Schneeberg, Grummann accepts the identity of "Friedrich Müller" with Franz August. The collector Friedrich or "Fréd." Müller, in Mexico 1853-1854, was another person (see e.g. Sayre, Mem. New York Bot. Gard. 19(3): 373. 1975); Fritz Mueller, von Blumenau (1822-1897) was a zoologist and flower biologist (see below, J. F. T. Müller); Friedrich Müller (1852-1925) was a bryologist, collector, and high school teacher at Oberstein-Idar. #### Bibliography and biography AG 2(1): 194, 6(2): 749, 7: 171 (err. born 1799); Barnhart 2: 524 (b. 1799); BFM 3310; Clokie p. 216; CSP 4: 516; DTS 5: xix; GR p. 115-116; IH 2: 568; Saccardo 1: 115, 2: 76; TL-2/1: 869; Urban-Berl. p. 267, 308 (Franz), 309 (Friedrich). - Anon., Bot.
