Beschreibung

Four separately printed parts, slim quarto, original wrappers. Four very scarce catalogues of bryophytes or non-vascular plants in the botanical collection at Hamburg, including ten New Holland Species, one from New Zealand and another specifically noted as a native species of Van Diemen's Land. This selection comprises four separately issued parts from the series of nine, published in 1831, 1832, 1838 and 1851 respectively. The author of the monographs, Joannes Lehmann (1792-1860), was professor at Hamburg University from 1818 and director of the botanical garden. The books are inscribed by the author to his respected peer, Professor Fredrik Wahlberg (1800-1877), a Swedish botanist, pupil of Carl Thunberg and member of the Swedish Academy of Sciences. Wahlberg was appointed professor of natural history and Materia Medica at the Karolinska Institute. A neat manuscript note by Wahlberg listing species is loosely inserted. . One part foxed, others fine, wrappers a little chipped. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 4306494
