Sub-Andean forest “ Mora Osejo ”
This collection covers an area of 3553 m ² ( Fig. 1E View FIG ) and is named in honour of the Colombian botanist Luis Eduardo Mora Osejo , who made significant contributions to the study of the morphology and physiology of Colombian flora ( Piedrahita 2005; Mora-Osejo 1984; Mora-Osejo 1987; Mora-Osejo & Sturm 1995; Mora-Osejo 2001). The collection aims to represent the flora of the country’s sub-Andean forests, located in the Andes mountain range at altitudes between 1000 and 2400 m ( Cuatrecasas 1989). It includes representative species such as Clethra fagifolia Kunth , Quercus humboldtii Bonpl. , and Viburnum tinoides Kunth ( Reina et al. 2010) .
