(2011-12) GUERRA, Gutemberg Armando Diniz; MENEZES, Maria de Nazaré Angelo; MING, Lin Chau
This article is based on information from a historical series of dried herbarium specimens dating from 1819 to 2002, bringing together contributions from researchers in both governmental and nongovernmental organizations from North and South America as well as from Europe. The focus is on Verbenaceae by its recognized range of aromatic and medicinal species of this family and its recognized use in Brazil. The study examines descriptive and critical notes from the New York Botanical Garden collection relating to the Amazonia, revealing the spirit of cooperation between Brazilian and foreign institutions in this region. Changes in the environment, network of researchers, changes in the language system, technology records and absorption of regional terms are detected over almost two centuries of scientific work that projects the continued training of scientists with local knowledge and interaction.
