Notes:

A.A.Bunge perticipated in the Altai expedition of C.F.Ledebour in 1826 (together with C.A.Meyer). In 1832 he investigated areas, which were not covered by routs of the previous expedition.

The original labels are handwritten on greyish or blueish paper by A.A.Bunge or C.A.Meyer. Those written by A.A.Bunge have the signature "Bunge" or "B". A part of sheets is provided with the printed labels: "Herbar. Bung., Flor. orient. altaica, 1839".

According to Lipsky (1908), the collections of 1839 were made by Bunge's gardener, not by Bunge himself. Many of them were incorporated in the collection of R.E.Trautvetter (the sheets are marked by the stamp: "Herbarium Trautvetter.").
