Career

In April, 1758 he was elected a Fellow of the Royal Society.[2]

He was appointed extraordinary professor of botany at the University of Turin in 1760 and was also the director of the Turin Botanical Garden. The journal Allionia: bollettino dell' istituto ed orto botanico dell' università di Torino is named after him.[3]

First Pehr Löfling and then Linnaeus named the New World herb genus Allionia (Nyctaginaceae) after Allioni.[3][4] Per Axel Rydberg named the genus Allioniella (now a taxonomic synonym for Mirabilis), after him.

• Arabis allionii
• Jovibarba allioni
• Primula allioni
• Veronica allionii
