Rafael Herbst was an Argentine paleontologist born on April 6, 1936, in Hamburg, Germany, and he passed away on September 2, 2017, in Tucumán Province. He published over 170 scientific articles, primarily focusing on various plant taxa, with significant contributions to the study of royal fern plants. Herbst was an inspiring teacher at Tucumán University for decades.
