Analysis and digitalisation of the Herbarium of count Franjo Vojković-Vojkffy Klokočki

Count Franjo Vojković-Vojkffy Klokočki, Croatian florist, lived in the first half of the 19th century. During his lifetime he collected herbarium specimens which are today kept in Herbarium Croaticum (ZA) at the Division of Botany of the Department of Biology, Faculty of Science, University of Zagreb. These herbarium specimens are one of the oldest specimens in Herbarium Croaticum. The herbarium sheets are in the original protective cases and are in good condition. A number of 183 specimens were systematized according to Linne in Genera Plantarum vol. I and II, while the rest of the material was not systematized. The renowned Croatian naturalist Dragutin Hirc brought Count Vojković's herbarium to the Department of Botany and Phisiology (now Division of Botany) in 1910. Hirc wrote an article about it for the Periodicum Biologorum in 1911, providing the list of species found in the herbarium. During February and March of 2019 Vojković's herbarium was digitalized. The list of the species found was compared to that of Hirc’s from 1911. The percentage of invasive and allochthone species was analysed, as well as the percentage of plants belonging to various plant families. In total, 355 specimens belong to 70 different families. Most common are Asteraceae (12.4%), Lamiaceae (11.6%) and Fabaceae (11.6%). Five taxa are today considered invasive in Croatia. Allochthonous flora of the herbarium counts 82 specimens, which raises the question whether they were sampled within Croatia or elsewhere.
