Edwin B. Bartram


Edwin B. Bartram [1878-1964] was a distinguished American bryologist [ie. moss and liverwort expert], although, for the first 13 years of his botany career, he worked on flowering plants.

He travelled to Newfoundland in 1911 with Merritt Lyndon Fernald.

While in Newfoundland with Merritt Lyndon Fernald in 1924, 1925 and 1926, Bayard H. Long independently collected 165 species and varieties of mosses, mostly from "limestone" areas. Now residing in the ANSP, these collections were studied by Bartram (Bartram 1928).
