Erik Acharius (10 October 1757–14 August 1819) was a Swedish botanist who pioneered the taxonomy of lichens and is known as the "father of lichenology".
Acharius was born in Gävle, matriculated at Uppsala University in 1773 and was one of the last of the students of Linnaeus.
The collections of Acharius are distributed over several museums: the Finnish Museum of Natural History in Helsinki, the Botanical Museum in Uppsala, the Swedish Museum of Natural History and the Botanical Museum in Lund.
