German botanist who collected extensively in Xalapa, Mexico with F. Deppe. His original collections at B were destroyed in the Second World War, though a duplicate set from Baschant is now extant at B. Types are mainly at HAL. There are photographs of some specimens in Mexico at XAL. A number of taxa are named in his honour including Cibotium schiedei Schltdl. & Cham.
