| Entry comment: | A colour image of this gathering is available at https://www.flickr.com/photos/lotus-salvinia/. [CNS 2017-05-16] According to HEIDRAUHFDD038_005 (line 2) Rauh passed Ica (Dept. Ica) on 1956-09-20. On the same page he cited the towns Nazca (Dept. Ica, line 3) and Palpa (Dept. Ica, lines 7, 8 & 12). Loxanthocereus sp. Rauh K 106 (1956) is cited for the first time on page HEIDRAUHFDD038_007. The next date noted in the diary is 1956-09-28 on page HEIDRAUHFDD038_034, the departure at Chala (Dept. Arequipa). The gathering date can be presumed in the first days of the interval 1956-09-20 ... 28, very likely the day after passing Ica and arriving at Nazca. [CNS 2017-05-17] |
