Spach worked also in the Webb herbarium (now at [[Collection FI|FI]]) which therefore contains several of his types. The Webb herbarium also contains some specimens from Strassbourg, presumably collected by Spach. #### Bibliography and biography AG 6(1): 431; Backer p. 661; Barnhart 3: 306 (b. 26 Nov 1801, d. 18 Mai 1879); Blunt p. 116, 228; BM 5: 1984; CSP 5: 766-767, 12: 695; Frank 3 (Anh.): 99; GF p. 77; Herder p. 148, 209, 327, 337; Hortus 3: 1204; IH 1 (ed. 6): 364, (ed. 7): 343; Jackson p. 117; Langman p. 713; Lasègue p. 319; Moebius p. 139; Morren ed. 2, p. 20; MW p. 463; NI 1878; PR 4397, 8805, ed. 1: 4865, 9775; Rehder 5: 814; RS p. 142; TL-1/577, 935, 1251; TL-2/3303, 4962, see C.F.B. de Mirbel; Tucker 1: 661; Urban-Berl. p. 399; Zander ed. 10, p. 719, ed. 11, p. 821. #### Biofile - Anon., Bonplandia 6(2): 53. 1858 (cognomen Leopoldina: Blair); Bot.
