Johann Nepomuk Schnabl

Johann Nepomuk Schnabl (5 October 1853 in Moosburg – 16 June 1899 in Munich) was a German schoolteacher and mycologist.

He worked as a schoolteacher in the communities of Zolling, Freising and Sendling (from 1877).[1] In 1896 he was named head instructor at the "Höheren-Töchterschule" in Munich.[2]

With mycologist Andreas Allescher, he maintained an exsiccatae of Bavarian fungi ("Fungi bavarici exsiccate").[3][4] In 1892 he published Mykologische Beiträge zur Flora Bayerns (Mycological contribution to Bavarian flora").[5]

He was the binomial authority of the fungi species Cryptomela allescheri, Curreya rehmii, Diplodia caraganae and Diplodia coluteae.[5] Mycological taxa with the specific epithet of schnablianum commemorates his name; examples being Belonidium schnablianum (Rehm, 1896) and Fusarium schnablianum (Allesch., 1895).[2]
