Elias Magnus Fries (August 15, 1794 - February 8, 1878) was a Swedish botanist born at Femsjö in Smalandia.
In 1811 he entered the University of Lund where, in 1814, he was appointed an associate professorship in botany, and in 1824, became a full professor. In 1834 he became professor of practical economy at Uppsala University. On the death of Göran Wahlenberg (1780-1851) he was appointed professor of botany at Uppsala University.
Fries is considered to be, after Persoon, founding father of modern mushroom taxonomy (see mycology). His taxonomy of mushrooms was influenced by German romantics (see Goethe). He utilized spore color and arrangement of the hymenophore (pores, gills, teeth etc.) as major taxonomic characteristics.
