career:

A well-known Queensland plant enthousiast who visited New Guinea twice.

Aglaia hartmanni C.DC. was named after him.

Collecting localities:

Papua. 1885. Meeting the Bonito Expedition in the mouth of the Fly River (July); leaving the Fly with MacFarlane (July 23); Saibai Isl. (S of Mabaduan) and islands in the Papuan Gulf.-1887. With G. Hunter departing from Port Moresby (end of June); ascending the eastern bank of the Kemp Welch River and pushing forward with the intention to go to the top range between Mt Brown and Mt Obree; it is certain that not even the base of Owen Stanley Range was reached, evidently they were near Mt Gillies;¹ the highest point was reached on July 6; return journey to the S. coast ( ? Rigo) rafted down the Musgrave River to near its junction with the Kemp Welch; back at Port Moresby (July 16).-Evidently Thursday Isl. was visited too, as he is recorded to have collected lichens there.²

collections:

He is reputed to have collected a large series of specimens;² possibly the bulk is still lying undetermined in Herb. Melbourne [MEL]. Dupl. in Herb. Kew [K]: Queensland and New Guinea (pres. 1881-88), 83 nos; Herb. Berl. [B]; partly in Herb. Decand. (Geneva [G]); some ferns in Herb. Bonaparte (= Paris [P]); U.S. Nat. Herb. Wash. [US]: 1 N.G. grass. Fern dupl. were also sent to Chr. Luerssen; Scitamineae to Herb. Copenh. [C].
