at his estate in stabelwitz, outside of breslau (part of breslau since 1928), he maintained an impressive plant nursery and arboretum. he is commemorated with the genera "lauterbachia" (family monimiaceae) and "lauterbachiella" (family parmulariaceae). the genus "gertrudia" (family flacourtiaceae) was named after lauterbach's wife, gertrud fuchs-henel, a noted botanical illustrator. in 1897 anton reichenow named the yellow-breasted bowerbird ("chlamydera lauterbachi") in his honor.
