Montserrat Garriga Cabrero (1865-1956) was a Cuban-Spanish botanist.[1][2]

She was born in Cienfuegos, Cuba, but moved to Catalonia with her family when she was a child. She collected plants from around the world, especially alpine flora, and collaborated closely with botany professor Pius Font i Quer (1888-1964).[3][4]
