Botanical Illustrations
Post illustrated several taxa which he described. Unfortunately, none of these have been published. In the Dinsmore revision of the flora, the figures were prepared by a high school teacher in Beirut. To my knowledge, none of Post’s drawings were used. At this site I will include Post’s drawings, usually done in pencil, which I have located associated with his type specimens. In addition, in his personal copy of the flora (in the Archives of Jafet Library at the American University of Beirut) are exquisite drawings especially of the orchid genus, Ophrys.
