George Macloskey’s contributions to botany are highlighted by his work as a professor, where he provided valuable lectures and insights into the field. One of his notable works is the “Syllabus on botany and zoology,” which was based on his lectures and published in 18931. This syllabus likely served as an educational resource for students and other individuals interested in these scientific disciplines. His dedication to teaching and sharing knowledge has left a lasting impact, and it’s in recognition of such contributions that the epithet “macloskeyi” was given to the small white violet, Viola macloskeyi.
