About this person

Johann Heinrich Linck the elder was a German apothecary and naturalist. He grew the family natural history cabinet and took an interest in starfish and some fossils. His classification of starfish into two major groups based on the presence or absence of an ambulacral groove into Asteroidea and Ophiuroidea continues to be used in modern taxonomy. His son Johann Heinrich Linck the younger also became a naturalist and documented the collections of his father.
