Acta Botanica Islandica was a scientific journal of botany published by the Icelandic Institute of Natural History in, and about, Iceland. It was established in 1972.[1] The 15th and last issue was published in 2011.[2][3] It was primarily an English language publication, but some papers in French and German were published.

History

Acta replaced the botany journal Flóra which was published between 1963 and 1968. It addressed a lack of publications in Iceland about Icelandic botany. The first editor was Hörður Kristinsson.[4][5][1]
