Dancza, István: In memoriam Endre Jeney. (16 August 1934, Debrecen - 11 February 2004, Budapest)

In Hungary the most frequently visited places were the following (num­ber of days in parentheses): Tata (173), Nyergesújfalu (78), Debrecen (46), Dunaalmás (32), Kocs (27), Naszály (20), Császár (19), Tatabánya (13), Esztergom (10), Gyöngyös (10) and Karcag (10). Most of his collecting trips outside Hungary were made in Transylvania and the Partium (Ro­mania), with some additional collections in western and southern Europe (Figs 1-2). From the number and location of the field trips, it is clear that most of the cases he documented the surroundings of the places where he lived: such areas include the Gerecse Mts and Bársonyos Hills. He was often accompanied by his school colleagues Eszter Horváth, Zoltánné Szentkirályi and András Liszt, secondary school teachers, and Ferenc Hartmann, herbologist, in the surroundings of Tata. When abroad, in the early years of his career he usually travelled and collected alone, later as the guide of secondary school classes. Fig. 1. Map of Jeney' s plant collecting trips abroad.
