<strong>Abstract
</strong></p>
<p>
The main objective of this project
is to study systematically the botanical collections of Brazilian Lauraceae
species housed at "Herbarium Belgii" (BR). Type and historical specimens from
important collectors of the 19<sup>th</sup> century, which are mainly kept in
"Herbarium Martii", are essential to the precise identification and
classification of taxa. Study of extant Lauraceae collections in BR would
complement a data base that has been built for Brazilian species through the
annotation and digitized images of all exsiccatae. Additionally, Herbarium BR
most probably possess many other specimens that have no duplicates in Brazil,
which are also important to be registered.<em> </em>
