The botanical garden of Naples

The Botanical Garden of Naples was founded at the beginning of the 19th century at a time when this city was dominated by the French. They carried out a plan which had been originally conceived by Ferdinand IV of Borbone and was prevented from being accomplished by a revolution in 1799.
The research done by the Botanical Garden is principally the study of the macro and micromorphological characteristics of some groups of plants for example : cycadales  and  orchidaceae,  ethnobotanical researches in rural areas of central and southern Italy and the analysing  of vegetable fossils from geographical sites in the Campania region.
Furthermore it is clear that the collections of the Botanical Garden represent a reservoir of vegetal  substances used for studies purposes by researchers in the Plant Biology Section of the Department of Biological Science..
