Short Description
The herbarium SZU is a curated natural history collection hosting ca. 130.000 vouchers of vascular plants, bryophytes and lichens. The focus of the collection is Central Europe and Eurasian mountains. A carpological collection from native plants, a wet collection of orchids (focus Bulbophyllum) and a tissue collection (inkl. DNA-bank) of Alpine plants complement the "traditional" herbarium collection. A part of the collection is digitized and accessible via GBIF.
