- Q18716171 abstract "Abel Aken Hunter (September 18, 1877 – April 6, 1935) was an American botanist notable for his contributions to science primarily in the collection of the orchids of Panama. From 1915-1935, he was a team member on scientifically significant orchid hunting expeditions with many of the collectors and researchers of the day: Charles Powell, George Pring, Carroll Dodge, Julian Steyermark, and Paul Allen. He earned his reputation in field work as an outgrowth of his friendship with Charles Powell. In a unique period in Panama's history, his first orchid collecting adventure took place with Powell during a fishing trip on the newly man-created Gatun Lake in 1912. By 1915, both Hunter and Powell were living and working in Balboa, Panama. As a hobby, Powell started an orchid garden. Beginning in 1918, the two men would spend leave periods from their employment on extended collecting expeditions: their mission morphing over the years from that of hobby collecting to systematic scientific collecting. In 1919, Powell submitted their findings for identification to German botanist Rudolf Schlechter who published, in 1922, Orchidaceae Powellianae Panamenses, a 95-page study of Powell's Panama orchids—Schlechter naming five of the new to science species to honor Hunter.To supplement the plant collection at the Missouri Botanical Garden's (MBG) Tropical Station in Balboa, Panama, in 1927, Hunter trekked with George Pring on a month-long collecting expedition in Panama's Chiriquí region. In 1928, Hunter became the second manager of the Tropical Station. In 1934-35, as part of MBG collection teams including Carroll Dodge, Julian Steyermark, Paul Allen and Hunter, more than 740 collection records (herbarium specimens) crediting Hunter were submitted for study to the MBG's herbarium in St. Louis, Missouri; Hunter's specimen records are found online in the Tropicos database. Hunter and Allen's herbarium specimens can be found in the Oakes Ames Herbarium at Harvard University—four of which proved to be new to science species. The records generated by these expeditions not only document the time and location of specific species but continue to provide scientists and anyone wishing to see them an opportunity for study via digital images in virtual herbaria.".
