Joseph Francisco (ko-ray'-ah) Correa Da Serra

CORREA DA SERRA, Joseph Francisco (ko-ray'-ah), Portuguese botanist, born in Serpa in 1750; died in Caldas, 11 September, 1823. He studied at Rome and Naples, and, after residing eleven years at Paris, came in 1813 to the United States to prosecute researches in natural history. About 1814 he supplied the place of Mr. Barton as professor of botany in Philadelphia. He published several botanical papers, one, on the soil of Kentucky, in "American Philosophical Transactions" (vol. i., new series). When Correa returned to his own country, the constitutional form of government had been established and he was elected a representative. Besides many scientific writings, he left an extensive work entitled "Collection de libro ineditos da historia Portugueza."
