Karel Bořivoj Presl (17 February 1794 – 2 October 1852) was a Czech botanist.
He lived his entire life in Prague, and was a professor of botany at the University of Prague (1833–52).[1] He made an expedition to Sicily in 1817,[2] and with his brother, published a "Flora bohemica" titled "Flora čechica: indicatis medicinalibus, oeconomicis technologicisque plantis" in 1819.[3]
His older brother Jan Svatopluk Presl was also a noted botanist; the journal Preslia of the Czech Botanical Society is named in their honor.[4] The botanical genera Preslaea Mart., 1827 (family Boraginaceae) and Preslia Opiz, 1824 (family Lamiaceae) are dedicated to the two brothers.[1]
He spent nearly 15 years producing the "Reliquiae Haenkeanae" (published from 1825 to 1835), a work based on botanical specimens collected in the Americas by Thaddaeus Haenke.[5]
