The Chilean collections were sold after Bertero's death, acquired by the Esslingen Unio itineraria and dispersed over various institutions. For details see IH. Most of Bertero's manuscripts, in so far as they are extant, are also at [[Collection TO|TO]]. See Urban (1902) for an itinerary and for further literature. *Ref*.: IH 2: 71; Saccardo 1: 28, 2: 18. - Anon., Flora 18(1). Int.
