Biography


Murbeck was born in the parish of Hardeberga in Skåne County, Sweden. While studying at Lund University, Murbeck undertook a successful field trip to Bosnia-Herzegovina before receiving his PhD in geology and botany in 1891. That same year he was made a lecturer at the university. He took up a position as curator of the Swedish Museum of Natural History (1882-1883) and from 1897 until 1902 he worked for the Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences at Alnarp. Murbeck returned to Lund University to become professor of botany and director of the Botaniska trädgården from 1902-24. Murbeck became a member of the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences in 1907 and the Royal Society of Sciences in Uppsala in 1911.[2][3]

He made important contributions to knowledge of the flora of North Africa, writing several articles and books, including Contributions a la connaissance de la flore du nord-ouest de I'Afrique et plus specialement de la Tunisie (1897).[4]
