Abstract

This field book consists of the field notes of T. R. Soderstrom from a trip to Colombia and Brazil in 1973. Entries include notes on collected plants (including collector number 2027 and possibly others), and notes on specimens from Jardim Botanico (collector numbers 1905 through 2267 is an approximate range). Notes tend to be long and descriptive, and cover observations of growth, habitat, physical description, conjectures on flowering cycles, and other thoughts and observations. Several sketches are included throughout the book. Localities include: Cundrinamarca, Rio de Janeiro. A list of photographs can be found in the back of the book.
