"Rapport sur une mission botanique exécutée en 1884 dans la région saharienne, au nord des grands chotts et dans les îles de la côte orientale de la Tunisie" by Doûmet-Adanson is a scientific publication written in the late 19th century. This detailed report encapsulates the findings of a botanical mission aimed at exploring and documenting the flora and fauna of Tunisia, particularly focusing on the southern regions and coastal islands. The work highlights the collaborative efforts of various scientists and their dedication to expanding the knowledge of natural history in Tunisia during this period. At the start of the report, the author introduces the mission and outlines the team involved, including renowned scientists like Valéry Mayet and the doctor Bonnet. The group began their journey in late March 1884, conducting explorations in Tunisia, where they meticulously cataloged plant species and contributed observations on local meteorology, geology, and archaeology. The narrative sets the tone for a thorough scientific exploration, detailing their travels from Tunis through various terrains, highlighting the challenges they faced along the way, and showcasing the rich biodiversity and contrasting ecologies of the regions they investigated.
