Frankfurt/Oder, first Dir. (Praefectus) Berlin Botanical Garden 1744-1786 and other posts in forestry, died 5 Oct 1786 in Berlin. **Abbreviated name**: *Gled* \[standard form in IPNI: *Gled.*\] #### Herbarium and types The Gleditsch herb., acquired by the Berlin Academy of Sciences in 1791, is lost. The *Berichte über die... Verhandlungen der Königl. Preuss. Akademie der Wissenschaften zu Berlin* for the year 1840 contains a statement on p. 81 that H. Goeppert showed a 'Verzeichnis' of the former Gleditsch herb., and a further note on p. 119 in which Link presented this register "mit der Bemerkung das dieses Herbarium nicht mehr vorhanden sei". Urban could not trace the collection either. Gleditsch was a corr. of Linnaeus and there are plants collected by him in [[Collection LINN|LINN]]. #### Bibliography and biography ADB 9: 224-225; AG 6(2): 182; Ainsworth p. 342 (index); APN p. 229; Backer p. 236, 651; Baillon 2: 706; Barnhart 2: 54; BM 2: 682-683, 6: 379; Bossert p. 146; De Toni 1: l-li; Dryander 5: 253 (index); Frank 3(Anh.): 35; GR p. 15-16; HA 2: 293-295, 404, 700; Herder p. 452 (index); Hortus 3: 1193; IF p. 699; IF suppl. 4: 354; IH 2: 227; Jackson p. 16, 297, 430; Kelly p. 91; Kew 2: 425; Langman p. 317; LS 10.059-10.072; Mägdefrau p. 310 (index); Moebius p. 450 (index); NDB 6: 442-443; Portr. 3: 484; PR ed. 1: 3352-3365, ed. 2: 3668-3685; Quenstedt p. 165; Ratzeburg 1: 187-190; Rehder 5(index): 324-325; RS p. 85; SO p. 24 (index); TL-1: 171-172; TL-2/1: 951-952, indices 2/4, 2/5, 2/7, Suppl. 2, 3; Tucker 1: 280; Urban-Berl. p. 11, 349; Zander ed. 10: 603, ed. 11: 755, ed. 17: 949; Zep.-Tim. p. 53-54. #### Biofile - Anon., Nouv.

Names appearing in these works in the ranks specified at the end of each listing are not to be accepted as validly published (in this case all ranks). This list was established by action of the Tokyo Congr. (1993) and first appeared in the 1994 Tokyo *Code*.
