This work focuses on the botanical exploration of Senegal, highlighting the efforts of various explorers to gather plant specimens and document the region's biodiversity. The author stresses the need for a more comprehensive understanding of the flora in both coastal and inland areas of Senegal, particularly as French colonial interests expand deeper into the African continent.  The opening of this publication introduces the context of Senegal's exploration, as France aims to expand its influence and establish trade routes into the interior of Africa. Vallot outlines the current state of botanical knowledge about the region, indicating a significant gap in understanding the plants beyond the coastline and the fertile regions accessible to explorers. He calls attention to the importance of collecting botanical specimens from unexplored mountainous regions like Fouta-Djallon and implores future travelers and botanists to document their findings to enhance the study of Senegalese flora. These initial sections set a foundation for a more detailed catalog of plant species, which Vallot hopes will aid in the scientific development of the area.
