6 [Pierre Magnol (born 8 June 1638, Montpellier; died 21 May 1715, Montpellier), a French botanist, born in the city of Montpellier, where he lived and worked for most of his life. He became Professor of Botany and Director of the Royal Botanic Garden of Montpellier and held a seat in the Académie Royale des Sciences de Paris for a short while. As one of the innovators who devised the botanical scheme of classification, he was the first to publish the concept of plant families as they are understood today, a natural classification of groups of plants based on combinations of morphological characters. He is forever commemorated by the genus Magnolia, a flowering tree originally from the island of Martinique, named for him in 1703 by botanist Charles Plumier (1646‑1704).]
