This page provides access to data and images in the Herbarium collections. The online database is still under development (it also is in process of adding images for the specimens) and only selected collections will be available online in the virtual herbarium. More details about the digitisation program are available here.
The Virtual Herbarium is a text and photographic database of the specimens in the Herbarium Mediterraneum. There are currently 96,000 records that are seachable by family, genus, collector and other fields. At the moment, only selected families of these records have high resolution photographs of the specimen in a format that can be zoomed in and out in the browser. Specimen images are of sufficient quality to permit analysis of taxonomic features that can be seen with a handlens or low-power dissecting microscope.
