Agradecimientos A la Fundación de Historia Natural “Félix de Azara” y a su director, Adrián Giacchino, por encarar con entusiasmo la edición de la presente obra.

A Ulyses Pardiñas, Jaime Polop y Gabriel O Rodriguez por la información suministrada. 11 Introducción A partir del s. XVI y gracias a los avances registrados en las técnicas de la navegación los exploradores europeos pudieron acceder a remotas regiones donde, con notable esfuerzo, colectaron gran cantidad de muestras de mine- rales, plantas y animales desconocidos hasta entonces para la ciencia de sus países. Esto produjo un verdadero aluvión de especímenes hacia los museos de Europa con el consiguiente problema práctico de ordenar las colecciones para lo cual era preciso dar un nombre a los ejemplares para su posterior cla- sificación. Quien seguramente fue el primero en aplicar un método útil de nomen- clatura y clasificación, por lo menos en el reino vegetal fue el botánico suizo Gaspard Bauhin, quien en su obra “Pinax Theatri Botanici” (1623) publicó la sinonimia de las 6000 especies de plantas conocidas hasta entonces, utilizando un doble nombre para designar a la especie y al conjunto de especies o sea el género. Bauhin necesariamente utilizó el idioma latino por ser la lengua en que se escribían los trabajos científicos de aquellos tiempos. Hoy lo recordamos

  • New Plantings in the Arboretum the YEAR in REVIEW
    Four new have been Four new Yoshino cherry trees have Yoshinobeen planted along planted Azalea Way. cherry trees along Azalea New Plantings in the Arboretum THE YEAR IN REVIEW T EX T B Y R AY L A R SON P HO T OS B Y N IA ll D UNNE n the five years that I have been curator, 2018 was the most active in terms of new plantings in the Arboretum. A majority of these centered around the new Arboretum Loop Trail and adjacent areas, many of which were enhanced, rehabilitated and Iaugmented. We also made improvements to a few other collection and garden areas with individual and smaller plantings. Following is a summary of some of the more noticeable new plantings you might encounter during your next visit. Winter 2019 v 3 Arboretum Entrance Perhaps the most obvious major planting occurred in March, just north of the Graham Visitors Center, with the creation of a new, large bed at the southeast corner of the intersection of Arboretum Drive and Foster Island Road. This intersection changed a lot as part of the Loop Trail construction—with the addition of new curbs and crosswalks—and we wanted to create a fitting entrance to the Arboretum at its north end. The new planting was also intended to alleviate some of the soil compaction and social trails that had developed on the east side of Arboretum Drive during trail construction. What’s more, we wanted to encourage pedes- trians to use the new gravel trail on the west side of the Drive to connect from the lower parking lots to the Visitors Center—rather than walk in the road.

  • Thinking with Birds: Mary Elizabeth Barber's Advocacy for Gender
    Thinking with Birds: Mary Elizabeth Barber’s Advocacy for Gender Equality in Ornithology TANJA HAMMEL Department of History, University of Basel This article explores parts of the first South African woman ornithologist’s life and work. It concerns itself with the micro-politics of Mary Elizabeth Barber’s knowledge of birds from the 1860s to the mid-1880s. Her work provides insight into contemporary scientific practices, particularly the importance of cross-cultural collaboration. I foreground how she cultivated a feminist Darwinism in which birds served as corroborative evidence for female selection and how she negotiated gender equality in her ornithological work. She did so by constructing local birdlife as a space of gender equality. While male ornithologists naturalised and reinvigorated Victorian gender roles in their descriptions and depictions of birds, she debunked them and stressed the absence of gendered spheres in bird life. She emphasised the female and male birds’ collaboration and gender equality that she missed in Victorian matrimony, an institution she harshly criticised. Reading her work against the background of her life story shows how her personal experiences as wife and mother as well as her observation of settler society informed her view on birds, and vice versa. Through birds she presented alternative relationships to matrimony. Her protection of insectivorous birds was at the same time an attempt to stress the need for a New Woman, an aspect that has hitherto been overlooked in studies of the transnational anti-plumage
