Navigation: Finding SpeciesIf you are comfortable with your browser’s address bar you can go directly to any genus or species in this document. Put your insertion point at the end of the current addresswithout changing or deleting anything. After the letters “html”, type#followed by the genus or species name, like this:#genus (full genus name in lower-case letters, expand “æ” and “œ” to “ae” and “oe”)#genus_spec (full genus name, underline, first 4 letters of species name, treating “æ” and “œ” as two letters)#genus_spec_subs (same as above, adding first 4 letters of subspecies name)A few species had to be given alternate anchor names to avoid conflicts, and the very long genus nameMesembryanthemumhas been truncated toMesembr. You can also use your browser’s “Find” function to search for names or other text. See below forMimosa cinerea.SourcesThis section will be repeated in each installment of the text, with additions and corrections as they become available.All sources that could be identified are listed here in alphabetical order.An increasing number of these sources are available online. To fill in gaps in this segment, some citations from Reede (“Rheed. mal.”) were individually checked.Texts by Linnæus himself (“Propria”) are not listed. Four sources—Hasselquist, Kalm, Loefling, Osbeck—appear to have been students. Most of their citations would today be called “personal communication”.Note that the title pages of published books will often have different inflectional endings than those listed: for example, a title given as “Plantæ Rariores” might appear in print as “Libri Decem Plantarum Rariorum”. The words “Listed as” refer to the “Auctores” pages at the beginning of the volume.AUTHORS AND TEXTSAlpini, Prospero.De Plantis ExoticisListed asAlpinus : exotica.Amman, Johann.Stirpes rariores in Imperio rutheno. “Herbarium” may refer to the actual herbarium, given to Linnæus at or before Amman’s death in 1743.Listed asAmanni : Ruthenica, Herbarium.Barrelier, Jacques.Icones Plantarum per Galliam, Hispaniam et Italiam observatæListed asBarrelieri : Icones.Bauhin, Gaspard.Pinax theatri botaniciListed asBauhini : pinax.Bauhin, Jean (brother of Gaspard).Historia plantarum nova et absolutissimaListed asBauhini : Historia pl.Boccone, Paolo.Museo di piante rare della Sicilia, Malta, Corsica, Italia, Piemonte, e Germania,Icones et descriptiones rariorum plantarum Siciliae, Melitae, Galliae et ItaliaeListed asBocconis : Museum, Siculæ plantæ.Boerhaave, Herman.Index plantarum quae in horto academico Lugduno Batavo reperiunturListed asBoerhavii : Hortus lugd-batavus.Braunfels (Brunfels, Brunsfels), Otto.In Dioscoridis historiam plantarum certissima adaptatio,Herbarum vivae eiconesListed asBrunsfelsii : Historia.Breyne, Jakob.Exoticarum plantarum centuria primaBreyne, Johann Philipp.Prodromus rariorum plantarumListed asBreynii : Centuria; Prodromus a filio.Burmann, Johannes.Thesaurus zeylanicus,Rariorum Africanarum plantarumListed asBurmanni : Zeylanica, africanarum decades.Buxbaum, Johann Christian.Plantarum minus cognitarum centuria I.-V.Listed asBuxbaum : Centuriæ.Camerer, Joachim (the younger).Editor ofPietro Andrea Mattioli,De Plantis Epitome UtilissimaListed asCamerarii : epitome.Catesby, Mark.Natural History of Carolina, Florida and the Bahama IslandsListed asCatesby : Carolina 1. 2. 3.Clusius.see l’EcluseColden, Cadwallader.de Plantis Coldinghamensibus in Provincia Noveboracensi AmericesListed asColden Conr. : Plantæ coldinghamiæ. act. ups. 1743. quart.Colonna, Fabio.EcphrasisListed asColumnæ : ecphrasis.Commelin, Jan (Johannes).Hortus medicus AmstelodamensisCommelin, Caspar (nephew of Jan).Praeludia botanica ad publicas plantarum exoticarumListed jointly asCommelini : Hort. amstel. 1. 2.
