Samuel Liljeblad

Swedish botanist (1761-1815).

Samuel Liljeblad (20 December 1761, Mösjöholt, Södra Vi, Kalmar län – 1 April 1815, Uppsala) was a Swedish botanist and economist. At school in Vimmerby and at Linköping's Gymnasium, Liljeblad studied natural history. He became an avid plant collector encouraged by, among others, a physician in Linköping, Johan Otto Hagström (1716–1792), who was one of the Apostles of Linnaeus. Liljeblad matriculated in 1782 at Uppsala University, majored in economics, and graduated there with a master's degree in 1788. (In Uppsala University's Faculty of Philosophy, economics was the closest match to botany.)

Cortinarius pholideus (Scaly Webcap) (Lilj.) Fr. 1838
edible fungi species in the cortinariaceae family
Cortinarius pholideus is a species of fungus native to Finland, Great Britain, and Norway. It can also be found in North America. It is considered inedible.
Cladonia cariosa (Split-peg Lichen) (Lilj.) Spreng. 1827
fungi species in the cladoniaceae family
Cladonia cariosa is a species of fruticose lichen in the family Cladoniaceae. The species is characterised by its thick, tongue-shaped basal scales and upright grey-green stalks that lack the cup-like structures found in many related lichens, instead being topped with large chocolate-brown fruiting bodies. It has a cosmopolitan distribution and commonly grows on soil in both calcium-rich and calcium-poor sites across northern North America. The lichen is also known by the common names split-peg lichen and split-peg soldiers.
Lecanora subcarnea (Rim Lichen) (Lilj.) Ach. 1810
fungi species in the lecanoraceae family
Lecanora subcarnea is a species of crustose lichen in the family Lecanoraceae, first described in 1792 as Lichen subcarneus by Swedish botanist Samuel Liljeblad and later transferred to the genus Lecanora by Erik Acharius in 1810. The lichen forms a continuous white to pale yellowish-grey thallus with small areoles, distinctive pinkish to pale grey-brown apothecia (fruiting bodies) covered in white powdery crystals, and produces chemical compounds including atranorin and protocetraric acid that yield characteristic reactions in spot tests. It grows primarily in sheltered cracks of silica-rich
Ramalina polymorpha (Cartilage Lichen) (Lilj.) Ach. 1810
fungi species in the ramalinaceae family
Ramalina polymorpha is a strap lichen species. It is native to Europe and also occurs scatered in north America. The oxidative and cytogenetic effects of R. polymorpha water extract when introduced into human blood cells has been studied for potential use in the pharmaceutical industry or as a dietary supplement.
