Giuseppe Monti

Giuseppe Monti (27 November 1682 – 29 February 1760) was an Italian chemist and botanist. He was a professor of botany and from 1722-1760 director of the Bologna Botanical Garden. The plant genus Montia is named in his honour. His son Gaetano Lorenzo Monti (1712–1797) was also a botanist who continued work at the same botanical garden.

Monti discovered a fossil jawbone in the Alps and used it as support for the Biblical flood and both he and his son were among the last defenders of diluvianism among the naturalists of the period.

Monti was considered one of the great botanists of the period and his works were a major source for Carolus Linnaeus.
