Chōzaburō Tanaka

Chōzaburō Tanaka (田中 長三郎, Tanaka Chōzaburō^?) or often Romanized as Tyôzaburô Tanaka^[1] (November 3, 1885 in Osaka – June 28, 1976) was a Japanese botanist and mycologist. He established one of the two major taxonomic classifications system for citrus and related genera currently in use,^[2][3]　and is now considered to be a taxonomic "splitter".^[3] He is the author of 180 botanical names in the citrus family Rutaceae,^[4] including for example Citrus × latifolia (Persian lime) and Citrus tangerina (tangerine). Many of the species Tanaka described are still recognized, but his overall scheme is not supported by modern genetic research.^[3]
