Freire Allemão 1868-1876; in charge of a chemical factory 1876-1883; director of the Manaos botanical museum 1883-1889; from 1889-1909 director of the botanical garden of Rio de Janeiro. **Abbreviated name**: *Barb. Rodr.* \[standard form in IPNI: *Barb.Rodr.*\] #### Herbarium and types Unknown; most of pollen types destroyed by fire. – Most original drawings came in the hands of C.A. Cogniaux ([[Collection BR|BR]]), a set of 550 copies is at [[Collection K|K]]. – Otto Stapf (1909), speaks of an "almost complete absence of specimens" and short diagnoses, concluding that the most important protologue material for R's 573 new species and 25 new genera lies in his drawings, published and unpublished. #### Note We treated J.B. Rodrigues under Barbosa Rodrigues in vol. 1 (nos. 299-305) but supply here an amended version. The author is most frequently cited under Barbosa Rodrigues. #### Bibliography and biography Barnhart 1: 120 (b. 22 Jun 1842, d. 6 Mar 1909); BL 1: 240, 285; BM 1: 97, 6: 57; Bossert p. 24; Hortus 3: 1188; Jackson p. 120, 374; Kew 4: 500; Langman p. 109-110; Morren ed. 2, p. 35; NI 1656-1660; Rehder 5: 50; TL-2/299-305; Tucker 1: 58; Zander ed. 10, p. 631, ed. 11, p. 717. #### Biofile - Anon., Bot.
