Literature to check for Lauraceae, 1968 - 1971

 File — Box: 2, Folder: 12

Scope and Contents

From the Series:

This series contains research photocopies, reprints, bibliographies and clippings related to Dr. Allen's lauraceae studies. Here is located her research and correspondence on Photography, Chromotography and the Isolation of Alkaloids in Lauraceae - the means by which she challenged Kostermans' lumping of ocotea and nectandra. Non-lauraceae files contain notes towards entries destined for an unidentified encyclopedia or guidebook. The verso of many of these pages is a typescript of what appears to be a mystery novel set in a herbarium. Other non-lauraceae material is a photo essay on the Lorillard Snuff Mill, clipped from a magazine.
