Abstract: | Early phycological research on the island of Helgoland was performed by amateur phycologists from the adjacent coastal regions
of Germany (Bremen, Hamburg, Lower Saxony and Schleswig-Holstein). These pioneers were followed by professionals, and by collectors
from the mainland universities, particularly from Berlin. This second phase group includes the naturalist Christian Gottfried
Ehrenberg, the zoologists Johannes Müller, Ernst Haeckel and Anton Dohrn, and the botanists Alexander Braun, Nathanael Pringsheim,
and Ferdinand Cohn. The leading marine phycologist in Germany, towards the end of the 19th century, was Johannes Reinke, who
finally worked at the University of Kiel. Paul Kuckuck's doctoral thesis had been supervised by Reinke who recommended him
for the post of the first curator of botany at the Biological Station of Helgoland, which was founded in 1892. Kuckuck worked
on the island from 1892 to 1914. After World War I, and after Kuckuck's untimely death, Wilhelm Nienburg became the second
curator of botany on Helgoland, from 1921 to 1923. The next permanent phycologist on the island, from 1925 to 1936, was Ernst
Schreiber. He was followed in 1936 by Peter Kornmann, who retired in 1972 but still continues as a research worker, together
with Paul-Heinz Sahling, who started to work as a technical assistant under the guidance of Ernst Schreiber in 1927.
