Remarks

Flower in spirit collection jar No.1460 (barcode No.00085455). [R. F. Hohenacker” is NOT the collector. He never went to India. Hohenacker edited many series of exsiccates between 1841 and 1874, containing plants collected by himself from Caucasia and adjoining areas and collected by others from Abyssinia, Chile, India, Italy, Mesopotamia, Surinam, Sweden, Ukraine. Although the specimen label shows “Ed. R. F. Hohenacker” (= Editor R. R. Hohenacker), usually the “Ed.” citation is overlooked and he is mistaken as the collector] Kanchi Gandhi, HUH
