Stolz 720 is a herbarium accession of Cannabis sativa gathered by A. Stolz in 1911 from Kyimbila station, in the Nyasa highlands, in what is now Mbeya Region, Tanzania. Six sheets of the gathering are known: two at the Naturalis Biodiversity Center (L.1592675 and U.1198646), and one each at the Academy of Natural Sciences in Philadelphia, the Missouri Botanical Garden and, as two sheets, the Muséum national d’Histoire naturelle in Paris.[1][2][3][4][5][6]
Collection and locality
The three labels read for this page are copies of one printed form, headed Flora Africae oriental. It is printed with the words Nyassa Hochland — Station Kyimbila (Nyasa highlands, Kyimbila station) and leg. A. Stolz., and filled in by hand with the name Cannabis sativa L., the number 720 and the altitude 550–1600 metres. The line for the place of gathering, Fundort:, is left blank on all three, and the printed year is corrected by hand.[7][8][9] Every holder catalogues the gathering under 1911.[10][2][3][4][5]
The Utrecht sheet carries the stamp of the Botanisch Museum, Utrecht, dated 21 February 1923.[8] The Paris catalogue files its two sheets under Malawi; the label's Kyimbila is in Tanzania.[5][6]
Specimen and identification
The Leiden sheet holds several tall stems with slender male flowering branches; the Utrecht sheet one long, sparsely leafy stem; the Philadelphia sheet a single branched stem with male flowers.[7][8][9] The labels name the plant Cannabis sativa L., and every holder files it under that name.[10][4] The Paris catalogue records that leaf tissue was taken from both its sheets in March 2021 for C. J. Grassa of Harvard University.[5][6]
