Helsingfors, Societatis pro Fauna et Flora Fennica, 1890-1892. Two parts in one. 8vo (23.0 x 15.0 cm). 541 pp.; 14 photographic plates, two coloured, folded maps. Early 20th-century half cloth over marbled boards. Speckled edges. = Rarely seen. Contains: A. O. Kihlman, "Pflanzenbiologische Studien aus Russisch Lappland, ein Beitrag zur Kenntnis der regionalen Gliederung and der polaren Waldgrenze"; V. Brotherus and T. Saelan, "Musci Lapponiae Kolaënsis"; C. Sanio, "Die Harpidien des nördlichen Finnlands sammt Kola"; A. O. Kihlman, "Neue Beiträge zur Flechten-Flora der Halbinsel Kola". In other words, all contributions are botanical, none is zoological. This expedition gathered information about the then still completely unknown inner part of the Kola Pensinsula, between the White Sea and the Arctic Sea. A volume titled "Separat-Abdrücke A." deals with geology, topography, etc., and is not included. Smudged library stamp on titles; the fore edges of the folded maps a bit creased and lightly chipped, one with an old repair. Otherwise very good.
