GENERAL PRACTICAL INFORMATION 1. WELCOME TO HELSINKI! We are happy that you have chosen to study at the Sibelius Academy of the University of the Arts Helsinki, a state-owned university providing the highest education in the arts in Finland. This guide is designed for exchange students and foreign degree students to help you to plan your stay and studies at the Sibelius Academy. It includes practical information that will be of use when planning your arrival and life in Helsinki. This guide will be useful for you before your departure for Finland as well as during your stay. We hope that your stay in Finland will be beneficial for your studies and an unforgettable adventure. WHAT TO PACK FOR FINLAND? Finland is not awfully cold. Regarding temperature, Finland is more favourable than most of the countries at the same latitude. This is because the warm Gulf Stream from the Atlantic gives us a surprisingly mild climate. However, Helsinki can be windy during the autumn and winter. By mid-April the sun is above the horizon for 14 to 15 hours in southern Finland and 16 hours in northern Finland. Around Midsummer in northern Finland, the sun does not set for several weeks. In Utsjoki, Lapland, the longest “day” of summer lasts for 70 days.

INTRODUCTION AND ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS When the present study was started, more than 80 names described in Trichiliafro m the African continent had to be taken into account; among these 16 proved to be the correct names for the here adopted species. Two new species were described, which brought the total number of Trichilia species known today from continental Africa to 18. Two widely known species needed a name-change. During botanical collecting expeditions in Africa, sponsored by the University for Agriculture at Wageningen, 8 out of the 18 Trichilia species occurring on the African continent could be studied in the field, which was of great value. The majority of the species ascribed to Trichilia (ca. 250 names) occurs in America. These species are in need of critical revision.
