Franz Petrak (9 October 1886, Mährisch-Weißkirchen – 9 October 1973, Vienna) was an Austrian-Czech mycologist.
From 1906 to 1910, he studied botany at the University of Vienna, where he was a student of Richard Wettstein. In 1913 he obtained his doctorate of sciences, and until 1916, worked as a high school teacher in Vienna. During World War I, he was stationed in Galicia and Albania, where he collected specimens in his spare time.[1] From 1918 to 1938, he worked as a private scientist in his home town, and from 1938 to 1951, was associated with the Naturhistorisches Museum in Vienna.[2]
He was the author of nearly 500 published works, primarily in the field of mycology.[3] Much of his mycological work was published in the journal Annales mycologici and its successor Sydowia. Reportedly, his private herbarium contained 100,000 specimens.[2]
As a taxonomist, he described numerous species within the genus Cirsium (family Asteraceae).[4]
The mycological genera of; Petrakia Шаблон:Au (family Pseudodidymellaceae), Petrakiella Шаблон:Au (Phyllachoraceae), Franzpetrakia Шаблон:Au (Ustilaginaceae), Petrakiopeltis Шаблон:Au (Microthyriaceae), Petrakiopsis Шаблон:Au (Ascomycota) and Petrakina (family Asterinaceae) have all been named in his honor, the latter genus being circumscribed by Raffaele Ciferri in 1932.[2][5]
Franz Petrak died 9 October 1973 in Vienna.[6]
