Abstract
The author describes the content of a small herbarium of the second half of the '600, preserved in the Botanical Garden of Lucca (Tuscany, Italy). The mentioned species are 111; although there are some missing specimen it was possible suppose their identification by name. The most of the species are of medical interest and the adopted classification was generally from the Commentary on Dioscoride by Mattioli; this permits to hypothesize that the author was a physician. Among the species listed , two exotics turned out not present in Italy during the XVII century; they are Amaranthus retroflexus L. and Artemisia verlotiorum Lamotte.File in questo prodotto:
