Daniel Charles Solander
1736-1782
Swedish geologist and botanist who assisted Joseph Banks, chief of scientists aboard the HMS Endeavor captained by James Cook, during their Pacific voyage from 1768 to 1771. Solander participated in the landing on Poverty Bay where he collected, described, and drew pictures of many plants. These pictures were used by Banks for the engravings of plants in his Bank's Florilegium. Two islands are named after Solander; one in the Mergui Archipelago and the other one south of New Zealand.
