Itinerary of Lund’s travels in Rio de Janeiro (coordinates
given in Appendix 2). For his travels in São
Paulo, Minas Gerais and Goiás see Pinto (1950).
on P. W. Lund’s first journey to Brazil, he left his ship in Rio
on 9 December 1825. he moved to niterói, into the home of
the representative of “March, Scaly, Walker and Co.”, where he
lived until 27 August 1826. During this period he mailed letters
home from Campo S. Bento on 3 February 1826, and from Rio
de Janeiro on 3 and 5 July. on 30 August 1826 he moved to the
estate of Brander Brandis, the Dutch Minister in Rio de Janeiro.
When Lund left the home of Brandis on 6 February 1827, he had
already collected 75 species of birds. These birds must have been
collected in or in the immediate vicinity of the capital. During
this period he sent letters home 17 november and 3 February.
After four days of travel Lund arrived at Rosário, a farm
midways between nova Friburgo and Cantagalo, in the District
of Cantagalo, north‑east of the capital on 9 February 1827. he
stayed there until late June 1828, making a trip to Rio in the
beginning of november 1827, and to Macaé in April 1828. At
Rosário he collected most of his bird specimens on the nearby
mountain Morro Queimado. he sent letters home on 17 June,
30 September, 12 october and 27 December 1827, and on 1
January and 5 May 1828.
When Lund left Rosário he went north to the Paraíba river,
which he then followed to its mouth. he first stayed at the
357
estate Sampaio, then passed through Rampoi and São Clem‑
ente, and on 5‑9 July he was at Aldeia da Pedra (now Itao‑
cara), the first town in the northernmost district, Campos de
Goitacases. he then continued along the river to São Fidelis
and Campos. he did not spend much time in Campos, but con‑
tinued to a small gold‑washer’s village nearby. Subsequently
he travelled to Rio. he mailed a letter from Rio on 25 Sep‑
tember telling about this trip, saying that it lasted a month. on
27 September 1828 he moved into a cottage at Itaipu, a small
fishermen’s village south of niterói, situated right outside the
Bay of Rio de Janeiro. he stayed here until he left the country
in the second half of January 1829, but did make smaller trips
to collect plants and birds. he had started out for Serra dos
Órgãos twice during this time, but apparently never made it
there. he collected birds between 25 and 30 october 1828 at
Lake Piratininga just west of Itaipu.
on 19 January 1833, Lund again arrived in Rio from
europe. he first stayed in the home of the Danish envoy earl
Reventlow until 23 May, and then moved to engenho Velho, a
suburb south of Rio, where he stayed at a beautiful estate with
the company of the German‑Russian botanist W. Riedel. They
made trips together, but did not make it to Serra dos Órgãos
(which they set out for on 23 March 1833) and Lund did not
collect any birds during this time.
on 12 october 1833 they set out for the long journey
through the interior of São Paulo and Goiás, and finally Minas
Gerais, where Lund remained.
