Johannes Browallius

Johannes Browallius (1707–1755) was a Finnish and Swedish Lutheran theologian, physicist, botanist and one-time friend of Swedish taxonomist Carl Linnaeus.
He was a Professor of Physics from 1737–46, Professor of Theology 1746–49 and was the Bishop of Turku (Åbo), then a diocese of the Church of Sweden, and Vice-Chancellor of The Royal Academy of Turku from 1749 until his death in 1755.〔(Finland National Museum in Helsinki )〕
He was an elected a member of the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences in 1740.
==Botanical activities==
In 1735 seeds of a plant collected in Panama by a Robert Millar were donated to Philip Miller of the Chelsea Physic Garden in London. The plants were grown on and forwarded to the Royal Society but with the name ''Dalea''. This plant was named ''Browallia'' (''Species Plantarum'' 2: 631. 1753 (May 1753 ); ''Genera Plantarum'' ed. 5, 1754) by the famous plant taxonomist Carl Linnaeus in honour of his fellow countryman and botanical colleague. Linnaeus’s principles of botanical nomenclature were first expounded in Fundamenta Botanica ("Foundations of botany") of 1736 and these were later elaborated, with numerous examples, in his Critica Botanica ("Critique of botany") of 1737. The book was published in Germany when Linnaeus was twenty-nine and the title page carries a discursus by Johannes Browall. The friendship was not to last. Coombes notes "''Browallia demissa'' (weak). Renamed by Linnaeus from ''B. elata'' (tall) after falling out with Browall." 〔Coombes,1989. Allen J. ''Dictionary of Plant Names''. Timber Press: Portland, Oregon.〕
Browall had advised the young Linnaeus to finish his studies abroad, then marry a rich girl – even though he was already engaged to Sara Lisa Moraea.〔Stafleu, Frans A. 1971. ''Linnaeus and the Linnaeans: the Spreading of their Ideas in Systematic Botany, 1735–1789''. Utrecht: International Association for Plant Taxonomy. ISBN 90-6046-064-2.〕 Linnaeus did, indeed, spend the winter of 1737–1738 in Leiden, travelling on to France. While abroad, he was sent news that "his best friend B." had taken advantage of his absence to court Sara Lisa Moraea and had almost succeeded in persuading her that her fiance would never return to Sweden. However, the bishop’s suit failed; Sara Lisa and Linnaeus were married in 1739. The entry under ''Browallia grandiflora'' in ''Curtis’s Botanical Magazine'' of 1831 reports:
