Charles Henry Dessalines d'Orbigny (1806-1879) was a French botanist and geologist specializing in the Tertiary of France. He was the younger brother of French naturalist and South American explorer, Alcide d'Orbigny.[1] At the National Museum of Natural History in Paris, d'Orbigny classified many of the flowering plant species returned to France from his brother's natural history collecting journeys through South America.
