Cyclopedia of malesian collectors. Mrs. M.J. van Steenis-Kruseman collected all data on collectors in the Southeast Asian Archipelago, which were published in Flora Malesiana series 1, volume 1 as the Cyclopaedia of collectors with some Addenda and corrigenda at the end of volume 1. Two supplements were published in Flora Malesiana ser. 1, vol. 5 and 8. The data of the volumes 1, 5 and 8 are now combined into this website. The data are more or less complete up to 1974. Later data on collectors and their trips can be obtained from Flora Malesiana Bulletin (also published by the National Herbarium of The Netherlands).
