臭椿
D'Incarville described and sent back seeds of several plants then unknown in Europe as a correspondent of the Jardin des Plantes. He was not a professional botanist, but was nonetheless well educated in the field and was made a correspondent of Claude Joseph Geoffroy at the Académie des Sciences in Paris after refusing to become a foreign associate of the Royal Society. Plants he introduced to the Western world include the tree of heaven ("Ailanthus altissima"), the pagoda tree ("Styphnolobium japonicum"), "Koelreuteria paniculata" and "Toona sinensis". He was also the first European to describe the kiwifruit.
