Translated title: Botanical Results of the Swedish Expedition to Patagonia and Tierra Del Fuego 1907-1909, Part 5
This is a large format softcover. Extra postage will be requested for Priority Mail and International Mail.
This is part five of the Botanical results from Carl Skottsberg's Swedish Expedition to Patagonia and Tierra Del Fuego 1907-1909. This publication deals with the vegetation conditions
along the Andes, with
particular reference to Chile and Patagonia. The report comprises of botanical notes identifying each specimen and its location, with significant commentary and with maps, tables and diagrams interspersed. This is followed by 21 pages of plates varying in type from plant sketches to photographs of plants and locations. Skottsberg was one of the most influential botanists of his age. His many expeditions significantly contributed to our knowledge of modern botany. He was on the ill-fated trip to Antarctica with Otto Nordenskjold.
