Abstract
IN the latitude of Loanda (8-9° S.), behind a dry, sparsely populated coastal belt about 150 miles wide, lies a mountainous zone, for the most part densely forest-covered historic locality of Golungo Alto, where Welwitsch lived for two years, and in which a large part of his rich collection was obtained. Here he discovered Gnetum africanum in 1855.
