From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Johann August Georg Edmund Mojsisovics von Mojsvar (October 18, 1839October 2, 1907) was an Austro-Hungarian geologist and palaeontologist.

Mojsvar was the son of the surgeon Georg Mojsisovics von Mojsvar (1799–1860). He was born at Vienna. He studied law in Vienna University, taking his doctor's degree in 1864, and in 1867 he entered the Geological Institute, becoming chief geologist in 1870 and vice-director in 1892. He retired in 1900, and died at Mallnitz on October 2, 1907.

Mojsvar paid special attention to the Cephalopoda of the Austrian Triassic, and his publications include Das Gebirge urn Hallstatt (1873 1876); Die Dolomitrisse von Südtirol und Venetien (1878–1880); Grundlinien der Geologie von Bosnien-Herzegowina (1880) with E. Tietze and A. Bittner; Die Cephalopoden der mediterranen Triasprovinz (1882); Die cephalopoden der Hallsttter Kalke (187 31903) and Beiträge zur Kenntniss der obertriadischen Cephalopodenfaunen des Himalaya (1896). With Melchior Neumayr (1845–1890) he conducted the Beiträge zur Paläontologie und Geologie Österreich-Ungarns (Contributions to the Palaeontologie and Geology of Austria-Hungary). In 1862, with Paul Grohmann and Dr. Guido von Sommaruga, he founded the Österreichischer Alpenverein (Austrian Alpine Club), and he also took part in establishing the Deutscher Alpenverein (German Alpine Club), which combined with the former in 1873.

He is responsible for naming the stage on the geologic time scale known as the "Carnian", after the Carnian Alps, in 1869.
