424 Beiträge zur Flora von Afrika. XL1II. Baum, der habituell etwas an eine unverzweigte Araliacee oder an eine Carica mit Schopfkrone erinnert. Er kommt in den Steppengebieten nicht selten, aber zerstreut und meist vereinzelt in der Nähe von Wasser- läufen und in den Waldgebieten an offenen, trockenen Abhängen vor; ich sah ihn in Ost-Usambara, West-Usambara und unweit der Buruberge, Stuiilmann sammelte Zweige bei Muansa, Fischer bei Kagehi, Conrads bei Neuwied-Ukerewe (nababansusu) und Mildbraed am Kiwusee bei 1460 m ü.

This large AI-assisted collection comprises about 60,000 images of botanical drawings and illustrations. It spans from the 14th to 19th century. As of today, we estimate the total number of botanical illustrations in our archive as 200,000 and growing. The "golden age" of botanical illustration is generally considered to be the 18th and 19th centuries, a time when there was a great deal of interest in botany and a proliferation of botanical illustrations being produced. During this period, many of the great botanical illustrators of the time, such as Maria Sybilla Merian, Pierre-Joseph Redouté, and John James Audubon, were active and produced some of the most iconic and influential botanical illustrations of all time. In addition to being used for scientific purposes, botanical illustrations were also highly prized for their beauty and were often used to decorate homes and other public spaces. Many of the most famous botanical illustrations from this period are still admired and collected today for their beauty and historical significance. All large Picryl collections were made possible with the development of neural image recognition. We made our best to reduce false-positive image recognition to under 5%.
