Johann Christian Carl Günther (1769 – 1833) was a German botanist, pharmacist, batologist, and author.

With Theodor Emil Schummel he issued the exsiccata Herbarium vivum plantas in Silesia indigenas exhibens a Christiano Günther et Aemilio Schummel collectum et omnibus botanices inprimis Silesiae cultoribus ac amicis dicatum (1811-1830).[1] With Heinrich Emanuel Grabowski and Christian Friedrich Heinrich Wimmer he distributed an exsiccata-like series of duplicate specimens called Schlesische Gewächse.[2][3]

The standard author abbreviation Günther is used to indicate this person as the author when citing a botanical name.[4]
