John Ray laid the foundations of botany and zoology in Britain.
The botanical terms 'petal' and 'pollen' were first used by Ray, and he was the first botanist to distinguish between monocotyledons and dicotyledons. Ray's Historia Plantarum was the first textbook of modern botany.
In systematic classification he had no successor until Linnaeus.
In his efforts to understand plant and animal form and behaviour he was ahead of Linnaeus and there was no successor to Ray until the 19th century.
Later scientists recognised his significance very clearly.
