On their return to Bavaria, the King awarded both men knighthoods and lifetime pensions.[4] In the first volume, Martius outlined the modern classification of palms and prepared the first maps of palm biogeography. The second volume described the palms of Brazil, and in the third, known as Expositio Systematica, he systematically described all known genera of the palm family, based on his own work and that of others. The majority of drawings of palms for the second volume, dedicated to Brazilian palms, were credited to Martius, with just a few landscapes, representing areas not travelled by Martius, taken from works by Frans Post and Johann Moritz Rugendas. The book was reprinted in two volumes in 1971.[4] Other works by Martius based on the expedition were Reise in Brasilien (Journey in Brazil), published in three volumes in 1823, 1828 and 1831, and the massive 40-volume monograph Flora Brasiliensis which was completed by others in 1906. E. J. H. Corner (1966) described the book as "the most magnificent treatment of palms that has been produced"[5] Alexander von Humboldt said of the work and author: "For as long as palms are named and known, the name of Martius will be famous."[1]Notes1. ^1 Excerpts from An account of travels in Brazil at the command of his Majesty, Maximilian Joseph I, King of Bavaria, in the years 1817 to 1820 by Dr. J.B von Spix and Dr. C.F.P. von Martius www.bluemacaws.org 2. ^The New York Botanical Garden 3. ^Arader Galleries {{webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20070928100748/http://www.aradergalleries.com/detail.php?id=1677 |date=2007-09-28 }} 4. ^1 Palm and Cycad Societies of Australia 5. ^Corner, E.J.H. 1966.
