Amy Jean Gilmartin (1932-1989) was an American botanist at Washington State University. In 1975 she became the director of the Marion Ownbey Herbarium and remained there until her early death in 1989. Her main study object was the tropical New World plant family Bromeliaceae. The Herbarium acquired a collection of important bromeliads during her tenure as director. This is Phanerogamarum Monographiae Tomus IV. Rare. Probably issued in very low numbers. An excellent, clean copy. Not in Stafleu and Cowan.
