Achille Eugène Finet
Achille Eugène Finet (1863, Argenteuil – 1913, París) was a French botanist best known for his study of orchids native to Japan and China. Within the family Orchidaceae, he was the taxonomic authority of the genera " Arethusantha", "Hemihabenaria", "Monixus" and "Pseudoliparis" as well as of numerous orchid species. With François Gagnepain, he circumscribed a number of plant species from the family Annonaceae. In 1925 Hu Xiansu named the orchid genus "Neofinetia" in his honor.
