Flora_Indica_(Burman_1768)_p_233.jpg(427 × 576 pixels, file size: 64 KB, MIME type: image/jpeg)

Description This is a scan of tab. 67 (adjacent to page 233) from Nicolaas Burman's 1876 Flora Indica. It shows two plant species, which were then considered species of Polypodium. The upper plant, labelled Polypodium spinulosum, but now known as Synaphea spinulosa, is of particular interest. Although described as a fern from Java, it is one of two plants listed in Flora Indica that are in fact endemic to southwest Western Australia. The specimens upon which the description and this image are based are now thought to have been collected during the 1696 voyage to the Swan River by Willem de Vlamingh. This represents the first scientific collection of plants from Western Australia, and the first formal publication of a plant from Western Australia.
