Polish Botanical and Mycological Research in Eastern Carpathians up to 1918. An Outline

Summary/Abstract: As shown in the presented material, the contribution of Polish botanists into a scientific research on flora and fungi of Eastern Carpathians up to 1918 was significant. In spite of very limited funds, extremely difficult and undeveloped terrain and difficulties in organising fieldwork, a more or less advanced research had been conducted. They resulted in the publication of some high level scientific papers usually printed in the journals of the Cracow Scientific Society and then the Academy of Learning. The input of the Botanical Section of the Physiographical Commission of the Academy of Learning should be underlined as well. Researchers related to those institutions have greatly enhanced the knowledge of plants and fungi of the discussed region, thus vastly contributing to both Polish and European academic achievement.It should also be noted that except for Polish researchers, the issue of botanic research in Eastern Carpatians within the discussed period has also been dealt with by foreign academics from: Austria, Germany, Hungary.
