Abstract

25 paintings of cacti from the Tomer Collection at the Hunt Institute are published for the first time, along with modem names and annotations. A brief summary is added, drawn from the works of Rickett and McVaugh, of the Sessé and Mociño expedition of 1787–1803, the subsequent fate of the findings, the rediscovery of the lost plates and their importance to cactus taxonomy today.
