Leslie Andrew Garay

February 13, 2024

Leslie Andrew Garay (August 6, 1924 - August 19, 2016), born Garay László András, was an American botanist.[1] He was the curator of the Oakes Ames Orchid Herbarium at Harvard University, where he succeeded Charles Schweinfurth in 1958.[2] In 1957 he was awarded a Guggenheim Fellowship.[3]

Life and work edit

Garay was born in Hungary, and after the Second World War he emigrated first to Canada and then to the United States. He was a taxonomist and collector of orchids, particularly interested in the orchids of tropical America and Southeast Asia.[4]

His ideas were influential in orchid taxonomy,[5] and he reorganized several genera, including Oncidium.[4] In addition to reclassification of various species into different genera, he defined a number of new genera including Chaubardiella in 1969 and Amesiella in 1972.
