A nearly complete set of duplicates is also at [[Collection FI|FI]], acquired with the Desfontaines herbarium. It contains the first set of the plants collected by him on the voyage in search of La Pérouse. The most important set of duplicates of these collections was acquired by Dclessert (now [[Collection G|G]]). Labillardière's Syrian collections were originally in the Lemonnier herbarium, now at [[Collection G|G]], and the types of the *Icones plantarum Syriae rariorum* are therefore also at [[Collection G|G]]. The types of his lichens and algae collected on the Pérouse expedition are in part at [[Collection PC|PC]], but in general the types from this expedition are at [[Collection FI|FI]]. *Ref*.: Wetmore, Rev. bryol. lichénol. 32: 228. 1963 (Tasman. lich.). - Koster, J.T., Taxon 18: 554. 1969. - Miller, H.S., Taxon 19: 528-529. 1970. - Kukkonen, I., Herb.
