His hunting grounds were the provinces of Kiangsu and the mountainous country of Anhwei, except that in 1910, he collected on the Hwangshan range. In these 20 years, he brought back some 40,000 plants fully annotated especially the rare and not well known species. His Anhwei collection was published in 1933 by his successor H. Belval S.J.. The tome VI book 1 published in 1920 contains his Kiangsu 1918 collections 136 pages in quarto, with 23 plates. It's interesting to follow him step by step, as he describes his daily encounters; oppressive heat in the valley; cold wind; pestilence around Nanking and Ousi; military movement hindering his projects; bands of inquisitive villagers hampering his work, especially his bird hunting; torrential rains several days sleeping in the open air; 12 hours walk; 60 li mountain climbing, often-dangerous storms; dinky boats; unreliable or even treacherous porters and so on and so forth. ― F. Courtois' Bird collection was published also in 1920. It comprised 130 pages of text and 60 plates, and there was more forthcoming. Besides Heude's, Courtois' and some other minor collections, the Zi-Kia-Wei Museum had two collections worth mentioning. Both Floras of Hangzhou, one by Oliver, determined by Courtois and the other by Clive of the Chinese Customs. The Musée Heude In 1930, the Heude Museum was built as an annex to the University of Aurora, on Avenue Dubail, now Chong Qing Rd. (South). I understand the University is now the 2nd Medical University, and the Museum has become an Entomological Research Centre. I think Dr. Henry Belval S.J. was given the task of transferring the extensive collections of the Zi-Kia-Wei Museum and the vast library to the Musée Heude, then a majestic building with a garden richly endowed with a variety of rare species. I never met Dr. Belval. He must have gone back to France in 1932. I arrived in Shanghai from Beijing in September 1935. ================================================================================
