dc.description.abstract August Wulfhorst (1861-1936), a German missionary attached to the Rheinische Missionsgesellschaft, collected material in omupanda (Amboland, Uukuanyama), which is located in present-day Angola. In the past, botanical collections from this area were wrongly proposed as originating from Namibia, so obscuring the occurrence of several taxa north of the borders of this former German colony, in Angola. en_ZA
dc.description.abstract August Wulfhorst (1861-1936), un missionnaire allemand membre de la société missionnaire de Rhénanie, la Rheinische Missionsgesellschaft, a récolté des échantillons de plantes à omupanda (Amboland, Uukuanyama) qui se situe actuellement en Angola. Jusqu’à présent, les récoltes provenant de cette localité ont été par erreur attribuées à la Namibie, occultant ainsi la présence en Angola de plusieurs taxons au nord de la frontière avec cette ancienne colonie allemande. en_ZA
