Along with the Cole Museum, it forms part of the university's School of Biological Sciences, and is principally used for teaching and research purposes. The herbarium has over 300000 specimens from around the world but has its most extensive collections from the Euromediterranean area supplemented with special collections from the Falkland Island and southern South America. The herbarium provides a research resource for some 50 staff and 500 students in Biological Sciences as well as providing material via loans to other registered herbaria.
History
