Johannes Elias Teijsmann

For his bitter controversy with J.E. de Vrij and Franz Wilhelm Junghuhn about the relative merits of the various species of Cinchona (C. calisaya versus C. pahudiana) see the successive issues (from 1862) of Natuurkundig tijdschrift voor Nederlandsch Indië.

The genus Teysmannia (since the work of Harold Emery Moore more correctly called Johannesteijsmannia) is named in his honour, together with several plant species.
