Johann Heinrich Sandstede (10 March 1859 – 5 March 1951) was a German lichenologist and local historian who contributed to the study of lichens, particularly the genus Cladonia. Born in Bad Zwischenahn, Oldenburg, Sandstede initially worked as a baker before dedicating his career to botany and lichenology. He published extensive research on the lichen funga of Northwest Germany and the Frisian Islands, including a notable work on Cladonia in the Rabenhorst series. Sandstede's contributions to lichenology earned him recognition from scientific societies and an honorary doctorate from the University of Münster. Beyond his scientific work, he was active in preserving local history and folklore, contributing to the founding of the Freiland Museum and publishing on regional customs. Sandstede's dual interests in lichenology and local culture made him a significant figure in both scientific and cultural spheres of early 20th-century Germany.
