E-mail: [email protected] Abstract During a field trip in 2012 to the Veslovskiy peninsula of Kunashir Island in the southern Kurils, 72 species in 24 families of vascular plants were collected. The floristic composition of Veslovskiy was compared with Notsuke of eastern Hokkaido. The general flora is similar between the two regions, except that forest vegetation is lacking in Velslovkiy. The relative dominance of the families; Rosaceae, Ranunculaceae, Ericaceae, and Violaceae in Notsuke can be explained by the presence of the forest vegetation. We could not confirm the forest vegetation in Veslovskiy. Rhinanthus minor and Leontodon autumnalis, which occur on Kunashir, are naturalized plants peculiar to Far Eastern Russia.

Plant type specimens and related materials deposited at the herbarium of Museum national d’Histoire naturelle in Paris (MNHN, P) are taxonomically re-examined. Those specimens were collected by French naval surgeon P. A. Ludovic Savatier (1830-1891) and were studied by A. R. Franchet (1834-1904). Most of the specimen images are shown in the botanical specimen database of the museum, but registration information about collection is often insufficient. Additional complementary data obtained in this investigation such as collection date, locality, collector etc., are registered together with the specimen images in the botanical database of Kanagawa Prefectural Museum of Natural History. Among them, 77 type materials of fern and monocot groups are reported with taxonomical comments. Key words: Ludovic Savatier, P. A., Franchet, A.
