Our Story

The book "Orchidaceae Brasilienses"

Researching Tours and Expeditions

Our philosophy at the Eco-Lodge Itororó is based on Dr. Fritz Dungs' engagement and feat on studying and protecting orchids. In the course of his pioneer work, he published two volumes of "Orchidaceae Brasilienses", together with G.F. Pabst, regarded as a fundamental work about the Brazilian orchids.

The region and surroundings of the Eco-Lodge Itororó were their central researching field and a starting point to numerous study tours and expeditions, turning the Atlantic Rainforest into Dr. Fritz Dungs’ second home. That is where our consciousness about the endangerment of this sensitive biosphere emerged, through the development and results of science.
