BOTANICAL SOCIETY OF JAPAN

 

The Botanical Society of Japan was founded as the Biological Society of The University of Tokyo in 1878 by Prof. Ryokichi Yatabe (Professor of Botany) in collaboration with Prof. Edward Morse (Professor of Zoology). The Botanical Society of Tokyo became independent of the Biological Society in 1882 and changed its name to the Botanical Society of Japan in 1931. In 1993 it was reorganized and recognized as a corporation, the Botanical Society of Japan. Membership is open to anyone interested in botany.
