Contributions to Botany, Number 70, 20 pages, 1 figure, 1989.--Despite substantial plant 

collecting in Bolivia, there is no general reference that summarizes information about collectors. 

Here, we list individuals known to have collected plants in Bolivia and for whom there is 

published information concerning their lives or their Bolivian collections. For each, we include 

biographical information, dates of Bolivian collections, herbaria containing the Bolivian 

specimens, and pertinent references to publications by the collector, or about the collector, the 

specimens, or the expedition. We also include a section of general references which pertain to 

several collectors; these are cross-referenced under the discussion of each collector. The type 

of information available from each general reference is briefly described 

OFFICIAL PUBLICATION DATE is handstamped in a limited number of initial copies and is 

recorded in the Institution’s annual report, Smithsonian Year. SERIES COVER DESIGN: Leaf

A Bibliography of 

Plant Collectors in Bolivia 

K A. Funk and Scott A. Mori 

Introduction 

Data associated with plant specimens may be useful to 

botanists, systematists, ecologists, biogeographers, and other 

biologists. Unfortunately, label information, especially for 

older material, is often cryptic. As a consequence, potentially 

valuable data may be lost. Sometimes this information may 

be reconstructed from publications about the lives and travels 

of the collectors. There is, however, no way of locating this 

information other than by a priori knowledge of where it was 

published, unless it is published in the comprehensive botanical 

taxonomic review by Stafleu and Cowan (1976-1988). 

Here, we provide quick access to published information on 

the collectors of Bolivian plants, up through 1985. This is not 

intended to be a comprehensive discussion on all botanists 

who have ever collected in Bolivia. Rather it is a quick 

reference to available published data. Citations included here 

fall into two categories: general and specific. General 

references contain information about several collectors. Specific references discuss only one or two collectors. Citations 

are provided within an alphabetical list of individuals known 

to have collected in Bolivia, and about whom descriptive 

material has been published. Pertinent general references are 

listed within appropriate collector discussions, and then cited 

in full within a complete list of general references presented 

alphabetically by author. Additional references, if not included 

in the general or specific lists, are cited in full where they 

appear in the text. 

The cryptogamic flora (especially the Bryophyta) of Bolivia 

is better known than that of any other neotropical country. 

This is primarily the result of the work of Theodor Henog, C. 

Muller, E.G. Britton, Robert Williams, and F. J. Hermann.

Robinson, Smithsonian Institution. 

The earliest student of Bolivian cryptogams was Muller. In 

his Prodromus Bryologiae Bolivianae (1897) Muller reported 

on the collections of Lorentz, Germain, Mandon, d’Orbigny, 

and Rusby. The Prodromus was the first comprehensive work 

on Bolivian bryophytes, although a year earlier E.G. Britton 

(1896, see under Rusby) had published an enumeration of the 

plants collected by H.H. Rusby in 1885 and 1886. 

The works of Muller (1897) and E.G. Britton et al. (1896) 

were followed a few years later by treatments by Henog and 

Williams. Herzog published a number of articles on the flora 

of Bolivia (1910 to 1945) that dealt specifically with his own 

extensive collections. Williams published two papers (1903, 

1910) in which he enumerated his extensive Bolivian moss 

collections. The most recent work on the Bolivian cryptogamic 

flora was produced by F. J. Hermann (1976), who surveyed all 

of the literature from 1869 to 1974 and compiled a list of 1,222 

species of mosses from Bolivia. The works of the five 

bryologists, Herzog, Muller, Britton, Williams, and Hermann, 

provide a relatively complete enumeration of Bolivian 

bryophytes. 

Many individuals also collected fungi and lichens. Stevenson (1971) gives an international list of fungi collectors, the 

distribution of their specimens, and references to their 

collections. Hertel (1980) provides detailed information on 

ihernational lichen collections. 

The phanerogamic flora of Bolivia is not as well known 

and, although numerous collectors have visited Bolivia, no 

phanerogamic flora has been written. A checklist was prepared 

by R. C. Foster (1958) but, because of nomenclatural changes 

and much subsequent collecting, its usefulness has lessened. 

Nevertheless, it remains the best available local checklist for 

the phanerogamic flora. 

Several individuals have either started floras of regions 

including Bolivia or have made contributions to one. Weddell 

began Chloris Andina in 1852. His original idea was to include 

the names, descriptions, and distributions of his own collections, and the alpine species collected by Humboldt in 

Colombia, Ecuador, and northern Peru, by Haenke, Meyen,

d’orbigny, Pentland, and Gay in Bolivia, and by Gay in Chile. 

The first volume treated the Asteraceae. The second volume, 

published in 1857, covered 42 additional ma. The series was 

never completed because of personal problems faced by 

Weddell. 

At the beginning of the 20th century, four independent 

projects pertaining to Bolivia were undertaken. Fries (1906- 

1909) published four papers that describe his Bolivian 

collections: the first covered the Asteraceae, the second the 

Malvales, the third 20 dicotyledonous families, and the fourth 

2 1 additional dicotyledonous families, 15 monocotyledonous 

families, and the gymnosperms. Buchtien (1910) published a 

list that provides determinations for over 1,ooO numbers from 

his Bolivian collections, including 200 pteridophytes. Identifications of the extensive collections of vascular plants by 

Herzog were published in parts with contributions by a variety 

of specialists (Herzog, 1913-1945; Koster, 1948, see under 

Herzog). Perkins (1912) provides identifications of the 

collections of Pflanz and Knoche as well as for some of those 

of Bang, Hauthal, and Bender; this publication included 

contributions by specialists, including Pilger on the Poaceae 

and Perkins on the Asteraceae. 

The flora of Bolivia received virtually no study from the 

1920s to 1946. At that time R.C. Foster organized what was 

intended to be a comprehensive flora. Experts were engaged 

to provide up-to-date treatments of their respective groups. 

Unfortunately, the project proceeded no further than a few 

revisions, such as that of the Iridaceae (Foster, 1946). 

Independent revisions for other groups of Bolivian plants 

include the Poaceae (Hitchcock, 1927), Rubiaceae (Standley, 

193 l), Bromeliaceae (Smith, 1969), Vernonia (Gleason, 1923), 

orchids (Schlechter, 1922), Labiatae (Epling, 1937), and Stevia, 

Mikania, and Eupatorium (Robinson, 1920,1922,1932). There 

are also many monographs on groups that include Bolivian 

species, but it is not within the scope of this paper to include 

all of those publications. 

Two floras are available for subregions of Bolivia. Adolfo 

(1962, 1966) published identifications for his collections from 

the Valle de Cochabamba, and Peiia de Flores (1901, 1944) 

listed his collections from eastern Bolivia. 

Recently, the Missouri Botanical Garden has organized a 

“Proyecto Flora Boliviana” (Proyecto Flora Boliviana, Casilla 

20206, La Paz) that is now underway. In conjunction with that 

project, James Solomon is actively collecting in Bolivia. In 

addition, since 1978 Stephan Beck (Herbario Nacional de 

Bolivia, Cajon Postal 20127, La Paz) has been involved in a 

collaborative project with the Universidad Mayor de San 

Andreas and the Universitat Gottingen, Germany, to build the 

collections of the Herbario Nacional de Bolivia. 

While many botanists have collected specimens in Bolivia, 

we have included here only those individuals for whom we 

have located some type of published information. Undoubtedly, we have overlooked collectors and information. We 

apologize for these omissions. James Solomon (Missouri 

Botanical Garden) is now working on a comprehensive list of 

botanists that have collected in Bolivia. We recommend that 

all corrections and additions to this list be sent to him as well 

as to us.

Plant Collectors in Bolivia 

This section includes information about individuals known 

to have collected plants in Bolivia and for whom published 

information is available. The arrangement is alphabetical by 

name of collector. To the extent that information is available, 

we provide for each collector (1) full name, (2) years of birth 

and death, (3) years in which the collector is known to have 

been in Bolivia, (4) the herbaria in which the collections are 

deposited, (5) citation of general references in which the 

collector is mentioned, and (6) specific references of articles 

written by or about the collector. In some cases, herbaria 

receiving complete specimen sets were specifically mentioned 

in one or more reference. We have indicated such mention by 

italicizing the appropriate herbarium abbreviation. Herbaria 

abbreviations follow Holmgren et al. (1981, Index Herbariorum, Part 1: The Herbaria of the World, edition 7, Feddes 

Repertorium Specierum Novarum Regni Vegetabilis, 106: vii 

+ 1-452). We have inserted a question mark to indicate 

information that is missing, in doubt, or in disagreement 

between references. When death date is not indicated, collector 

is presumed to be alive.
