## Caption

Ynés Enriquetta Julietta Mexía (1870 –1938) was a Mexican-American botanist. Later in life, she enrolled at the University California Berkeley where she went on her first botanical expedition. For over a decade, she made extensive expeditions ranging from Alaska to the southern tip of  South America. She discovered over 500 new plant species, and sometimes had injuries during these gruelling trips. She died from lung cancer at the age of 68.
