High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Dr Andrew Sinclair (13 April 1794 – 26 March 1861) was a British surgeon who was notable for his botanical collections. He served as New Zealand's second Colonial Secretary. His zoological specimens, chiefly sponges and zoophytes, were mostly presented to the British Museum, and his plants to Sir William Jackson Hooker, who commemorated him in the tropical American genus of Asteraceae, Sinclairia, now merged in Liabum. His plants were mainly described in Hooker and Arnott's Botany of Beechey's Voyage and Bentham's Botany of the Voyage of the Sulphur. 16 New Zealand plants were named to commemorate Sinclair including Meryta sinclairii, which is a popular street tree in coastal areas. He contributed Remarks on Physalia pelagica to the Tasmanian Journal of Natural Science, Vol. i (1842), and a letter On the Vegetation of Auckland to Hooker's Journal of Botany, Vol. iii (1851).
