Hungarica

Hungarica can refer to several things, most commonly relating to Hungary or Hungarian culture. One prominent meaning is Hungarica as a collection of books, documents, or other artifacts pertaining to Hungary. Libraries and archives often have designated "Hungarica" sections housing materials such as Hungarian literature, historical records, maps, and newspapers. These collections are vital for preserving and making accessible the cultural heritage of Hungary.

In a biological context, "Hungarica" is sometimes used as a specific epithet, often denoting a species found in or originating from Hungary. For instance, Quercus × hispanica 'Pendula Hungarica' is a cultivar of a hybrid oak tree. Similarly, the scientific name of the Hungarian meadow viper is Vipera ursinii rakovecensis, though "Hungarica" itself is not part of its binomial nomenclature, it reflects its geographical association. The term emphasizes a connection to the country.
