Dr. Oscar Grillo was born in Catania (Sicily) in 1977, he is a food technologist with an international PhD in applied and environmental botany. Since 2003 he has been working as researcher at the Stazione Sperimentale di Granicoltura per la Sicilia, a governmental institute of agronomic research, mainly working with computer vision applied to food matrices and plant structures, above all seeds, and in particular studying wheat and the related leguminous. Currently, he is working also at the Sardinian Germplasm Bank of the Biodiversity Conservation Centre of the University of Cagliari on projects devoted to seed characterization and identification by image analysis. Results of his work have been published in many peer-reviewed journals papers and international conference papers. Referee for a few peer-reviewed journals, many times he has been invited as teacher/lecturer/speaker by some universities and research centres in Spain and Italy. He has trained many MSc and PhD students, who have made their own contributions to the agronomical and botanical research.Dr. Gianfranco Venora is a biologist, born in Caltagirone (Sicily) in 1958, where he lives and works. He took his University degree in 1981, and since 1982 he has been working as researcher at the Stazione Sperimentale di Granicoltura per la Sicilia. His working expertise is mainly about durum wheat and leguminous breeding. At the beginning of 1990, after some years of experience on karyotyping cropped and wild species of agronomical importance, he was fascinated by computer vision applied to food matrices and plant anatomical structures, studying wheat and the related leguminous. He was recently nominated as professor to the research doctorate on Applied and Environmental Botany of the University of Cagliari. Many peer-reviewed journals published his papers and he was invited as speaker in many international conferences, and as teacher/lecturer by some universities and research centres in Germany, Netherlands, Bulgaria, Spain, Czech Republic and Italy. Gianfranco Venora is currently referee for about 15 peer-reviewed journals and tutor of many MSc and PhD students.

“…Riedel was coming from 'Tejuco' (now Diamantina) back to Rio de Janeiro with Baron Langsdorff's team of naturalists, which at that time included the French zoologist Edouard Ménétriès, a pupil of Cuvier, and the Russian Nester Rubtsov, responsible for collecting data on geography and astronomy; Rugendas, the talented German painter responsible for illustrating the Brazilian flora, fauna and people, had left the group in November 1824, after a serious disagreement with Langsdorff. Funded by Czar Alexander I, Langsdorff's legendary expedition was under the aegis of the Russian empire, and became one of the most famous expeditions to Brazil during the 19th century; it is renowned because of the tragic death of the painter Taunay and the irreversible mental sickness of its leader (for Langsdorff's personal annotations of the first part of this expedition, see Silva, 1997).…”

An illustration and a complete description of Hemipogon abietoides E. Fourn. are provided. Until recently this species was known only from the type, collected in 1825 by Riedel, during the first part of Baron Langsdorff's legendary expedition. Now rediscovered after more than 180 years, Hemipogon abietoides is a beautiful example of how a combination of micro-endemism and uneven collecting effort may distort our perception of the distribution of species and their conservation status. The importance of conserving particular areas of high endemism is emphasised.
