Hav.
Johan Johnsen Havaas (Havås) (19 October 1864–27 April 1956) was a farmer and botanist from Granvin in Hordaland. Early life and career Johan Havaas grew up on the farm Havås in Granvin and took an early interest in natural history and botany. He was particularly interested in the cryptogam flora. Havaas had only social studies and was largely self-taught, and also learned foreign languages (including Latin, English, German, French, Portuguese and Spanish) on his own, so he could both exchange letters with scientists abroad and publish his dissertations. With support from the University Museum of Bergen, Bergen Museum, among others, he traveled all over the country and collected and recorded large quantities of mosses, lichens and parasitic fungi. His interest was too low, and he himself described about 6 new species. For example, he found the first specimen of the lichen coastal coral lichen (''Bunodophoron melanocarpum'') in Norway, near Mosterhamn in Sunnhordaland in 1912. ...

Flavoplaca Havaasii
''Flavoplaca'' is a genus of crust-like or scaly lichens in the family Teloschistaceae. It has 28 species with a mostly Northern Hemisphere distribution. Taxonomy The genus was circumscribed in 2013 by Ulf Arup, Patrik Frödén and Ulrik Søchting, with '' Flavoplaca citrina'' as the type species. The genus formed a well-supported clade in molecular phylogenetic analysis. ''Flavoplaca'' species are closely related to ''Calogaya'' species that have lobes. There are other genera with roughly similar morphological features as ''Flavoplaca'' (examples include '' Polycauliona'', '' Orientophila'', '' Sirenophila'', and '' Villophora''), but they are genetically different and have different distributions. Arup and colleagues included 26 species in the genus; most were originally named as members of the genera ''Caloplaca'' or ''Lecanora''. Description ''Flavoplaca'' species have a thallus that is either crust-like (crustose) or scaly (squamulose), sometimes with indistinct edges, a ...

People From Granvin
A person ( : people) is a being that has certain capacities or attributes such as reason, morality, consciousness or self-consciousness, and being a part of a culturally established form of social relations such as kinship, ownership of property, or legal responsibility. The defining features of personhood and, consequently, what makes a person count as a person, differ widely among cultures and contexts. In addition to the question of personhood, of what makes a being count as a person to begin with, there are further questions about personal identity and self: both about what makes any particular person that particular person instead of another, and about what makes a person at one time the same person as they were or will be at another time despite any intervening changes. The plural form "people" is often used to refer to an entire nation or ethnic group (as in "a people"), and this was the original meaning of the word; it subsequently acquired its use as a plural form of per ...

The 19th (nineteenth) century began on 1 January 1801 ( MDCCCI), and ended on 31 December 1900 ( MCM). The 19th century was the ninth century of the 2nd millennium. The 19th century was characterized by vast social upheaval. Slavery was abolished in much of Europe and the Americas. The First Industrial Revolution, though it began in the late 18th century, expanding beyond its British homeland for the first time during this century, particularly remaking the economies and societies of the Low Countries, the Rhineland, Northern Italy, and the Northeastern United States. A few decades later, the Second Industrial Revolution led to ever more massive urbanization and much higher levels of productivity, profit, and prosperity, a pattern that continued into the 20th century. The Islamic gunpowder empires fell into decline and European imperialism brought much of South Asia, Southeast Asia, and almost all of Africa under colonial rule. It was also marked by the collapse of ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
