Paul Dietrich Giseke
Paul Dietrich Giseke (8 December 1741 Hamburg, Germany – 26 April 1796), was a German botanist, physician, teacher and librarian. Giseke was the son of a Hamburg merchant. He started his studies at the Academic Gymnasium in Hamburg. He joined the University of Göttingen in 1764 and graduated in medicine in 1767. He then went on an extended trip through France and Sweden and met Linnaeus, becoming his student and a lifelong friend - Linnaeus named the genus ''Gisekia'', now in family Gisekiaceae, after him. Giseke made notes of Linnaeus' lectures and published them in 1792 as ''Praelectiones in Ordines Naturales Plantarum''. The book included an illustration "Tabula genealogico-geographica affinitatum plantarum secundum ordines naturales Linnaei" which showed the affinities of the families in a form similar to a geographical map. It included circles for families with the size indicating the number of genera contained. Back from his travels, he settled in Hamburg and started practi ...

Amiga (butterfly)
''Amiga'' is a monotypic butterfly genus in the family Nymphalidae erected by Shinichi Nakahara, Keith R. Willmott and Marianne Espeland in 2019. ''Amiga arnaca'', formerly of the genus '' Chloreuptychia'', is the only species in the genus ''Amiga''. In 2019, Nakahara et al. described this new genus after molecular phylogenetic research showed it was not closely related to the other species of ''Chloreuptychia''. ''Amiga arnaca'' is found from southern Mexico through most of Central and South America to southern Brazil, and is common in rain and cloud forests. The larvae feed on grasses, including ''Eleusine'', ''Ichnanthus'', '' Lasiacis'', ''Oplismenus'', and ''Paspalum ''Paspalum'' is a genus of plants in the grass family.
