Charles Morgan Lemann (1806–1852) was an English botanist who collected a large number of plant specimens, including some from Madeira and Gibraltar.[1] His collection of 30,000 species was catalogued by George Bentham, and donated to the Herbarium of Cambridge University.[2] Banksia lemanniana was named in honour of him.[3]
