    After the activities of Oldham and Hogg, there was something of a lull in the introduction of living plants from Japan to the West, although botanical studies continued apace. Michael Albrecht, a medical officer to the Russian Consul in Hakodate made some collections in that area in 1867, passing them on to Maximowicz who was, by that time, immersed in his study of the Japanese flora.


    See also NY 02147664 for specimens collected at Hakodate, Japan, by "Dr. Albrecht" in "1871", distributed by Mus. Bot. Acad,. Petrop., apparently the ones mentioned above received by Maximowicz (Russiancollector).
