The Winfried and Renate Remy Award
The WINFRIED AND RENATE REMEY award was established
at the 1996 meeting of the International Organization of Paleobotanists in Santa
Barbara and instigated by the Paleobotanical Section of the Botanical Society
of America to honor the life and work of Winfried and Renata Remy. Winfried
Remy was an honorary member of the Paleobotanical Section and a Corresponding
Member of the Botanical Society of America, and together with his wife Renata
published a long list of internationally acclaimed scholarly contributions,
including their reports on the Rhynie chert organisms. Since the designation
of this award, paleobotanists from around the world have contributed to fund
this prize.
The Winfried & Renate Remy Award is given annually at the BSA banquet for the best published paper in paleobotany or palynology during the previous year.
