Overview of Psychotria in Madagascar (Rubiaceae, Psychotrieae), and of Bremekamp's foundational study of this group. Candollea 75: 51–70. In English, English abstract. Psychotria L. (Rubiaceae, Psychotrieae) is a large pantropical genus that is one of the largest genera in Madagascar, with almost all of its species endemic to the island and an unusually wide range of morphological variation. Cornelis E.B. Bremekamp (1888–1984) presented a detailed taxonomic treatment for Madagascar and the Comores that classified 143 species in Psychotria and six segregate genera, and that has been influential in Rubiaceae systematics but also problematic. Molecular systematic studies have found Bremekamp's six genera nested within Psychotria, but did not study most of their unusual characters. Here his genera and their morphological features are studied in light of our current knowledge of Psychotria in Madagascar and overall understanding of this genus. Some unusual characters are detailed here for Malagasy Psychotria. A new name, Psychotria deflexiflora C.M. Taylor, is published as a legitimate name for Psychotria penduliflora Bremek.

Botanical collections and an early printed vegetation profile. Candollea 75: 31–43. In English, English abstract. In 1841–1843 Theodor Kotschy travelled extensively in Iran and collected vast amounts of plant specimens. Edmond Boissier undertook the determinations of the material and validated numerous names new to science, often exclusively based on Kotschy's specimens. Subsequently Rudolf Friedrich Hohenacker arranged for the distribution of this material in two exsiccata series, which are today available for consultation in numerous herbaria. Kotschy's unknown botanical field book kept in the archive of the Herbarium Haussknecht in Jena is analysed for the first time and so is an exceedingly rare, printed vegetation profile published by Hohenacker in 1846, which summarizes Kotschy's pertinent sketches done in the field in southwestern Iran in 1842. Both documents are set into the context of their time and are shown to echo earlier works by Alexander von Humboldt done in tropical America. In addition, extensive information on Kotschy's travels in Iran is presented from Ludwig Ritter von Köchel's report as well as from archival material kept in the Herbarium Haussknecht and the Naturhistorisches Museum in Vienna.

Carl Linnaeus filius (1741–1783) published 16 new species names of ferns and lycophytes in Supplementum plantarum in 1782. Nine of these new taxa originated from the western Indian Ocean islands and were based on collections cited as “Sonnerat per Thouin” or “Thouin” in their protologues. Correspondence between André Thouin (1747–1824) and the younger Linnaeus indicates that those new names were based on a set of 50 collections that Thouin shipped to Linnaeus f. in 1779 and were in reality collected by Philibert Commerson (1727–1773) and not Pierre Sonnerat (1748–1814). Original material has been located in Linnaeus filius's herbarium (now in LINN-HS) and duplicates have been located in the Thouin herbarium (now MPU) and in G, P, P-LA and SBT.

The Brothers Soleirol, a centuries-long history of a confusion on a collector in Corsica. Candollea 74: 209–216. In French, English & French abstracts. Soleirol is a famous botanical collector well known for his plant collections in Corsica in the 1820's. Many scientific names of taxa have been dedicated to him. Although his herbarium specimens and letters have been signed by his surname alone and without his first name, the botanical tradition has given him the surname of Joseph-François (1781–1863). Our investigation shows that this botanist is in fact Henri-Augustin (1792–1860), the younger brother of Joseph-François. That conclusion is drawn on the analysis of his herbarium specimens, botanical literature, correspondence and biographical accounts. The Brothers Soleirol have followed a similar career in the French Army and had the same interests for art and botany. These similar ways of life have subsequently caused the confusion of their surnames. Our research shows that Henry-Augustin was the only one who collected plants in Corsica between 1820 and 1823 and visited about sixty localities from Cap Corse to Bonifacio through the large mountain ranges. As an important plant collector for Corsica, Soleirol has collected more than 5000 specimens that he has distributed or exchanged with other botanists. This paper highlights the activity of an amateur botanist at the beginning of the XIXth century. It honors Henry Augustin for his work after more than one century of confusion with his brother.","PeriodicalId":55276,"journal":{"name":"Candollea","volume":"74 1","pages":"209 - 216"},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2019-10-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46465936","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
