For Luigi Ferdinando Marsigli (Marsili) (1658–1730), Italian botanist, naturalist, soldier, military engineer, surveyor and author of over 20 publications.

He travelled extensively in Europe, mapping the 850-kilometres-long Hapsburg-Ottoman border, did scientific research on the Danube River written up in Danubius Pannonico-mysicus (1726) and studied the nature of the seas from Marseilles, France, publishing Histoire Physique de la Mer (1725).
