Report on a Japanese research period for the Dendrological Atlas Project June 1–September 30, 2013

摘要

Following up on previous researches made in Japan from mid-September to late November 1997, the purpose of the author’s 2013 trip was to complete the documentation of the temperate-zone gymnosperms of Japan for the ongoing Dendrological Atlas Project. A full documentation of 35 conifer taxa could be accomplished. Overall, the work included the field explorations of these conifers, documenting the species, their associated vegetation, and rendering additional study and documentation of the native woody flora in various living collections in Kyoto, Osaka, Tokyo, and Tsukuba.
