During July 1982, collections of local and wild tomatoes were carried out in Mexico. The sampled areas were established in cooperation with INIA in Mexico to avoid repeating areas previously examined by earlier collecting efforts.
The sampled areas belonged to the states of Yucatan, Campeche, Quintana Roo, Oaxaca, Puebla, Veracruz, San Luis de Potosi, Hidalgo, Queretaro, Sinaloa and Nayarit.
L. esculentum was collected in home gardens where farmers reproduced their own tomatoes or volunteer plants originated from ripe fallen fruits. L. esculentum var. cerasiforme is found wild associated with irrigated cultivation or in high rainfall areas without irrigation. In many regions of Mexico it is used for human consumption.

Catalog of collections of Lycopersicon and L. pennellii from northwest of PeruJ. Cuartero, F. Nuez and A. Diaz
During June 1983, collections of Lycopersicon seeds was carried out in northeastern Peru. Samples were collected from the following river valleys: Olmos up to El Pistolerito, Chancay up to Chongoyape, Jequetepeque-Magdalena-San Juan, Moche, Santa, Casma, Poshca and Cajabamba. In addition, part of the coastal plain of Lambayeque and Libertad Departments were also sampled. The winter of 1982-83 was very rainy in the desert area of Piura and Lambayeque Departments, and this affected habitats where L. piM2inellifolium is found. A special interest was taken in collecting this species in areas which have been semi-desert for many years.
Whenever possible, population collections were carried out to include plants of the same species into one sample until height or type of soil advised separating into a new sample.
Table 1 shows the items collected according to species. For each sample, location and altitude is given. An effort was made to identify the associated vegetation in order to give further information regarding the habitat in which samples were found.
