Friedrich Gottlieb Bartling

Friedrich Gottlieb Bartling (December 9, 1798 – November 20, 1875) was a German botanist who was a native of Hanover.

He studied natural sciences at the University of Göttingen, and in 1818 took a botanical journey through Hungary and Croatia. In 1822, he became a lecturer at Göttingen, where he later became a professor. In 1837, he was appointed director of its botanical garden. With Georg Ernst Ludwig Hampe he edited the four exsiccatae Vegetabilia cellularia in Germania septentrionali praesertim in Hercynia et in agro Göttingensi. Ser. A-D (1832-1845).

The plant genus Bartlingia from the family Rubiaceae is named in his honor.
