The herbarium contains approximately 640,000 specimens (520,000 mosses and 120,000 hepatics and hornworts). Of this total, approximately 24,500 (4%) are type specimens. This is the largest bryophyte herbarium in the Western Hemisphere and is among the five largest worldwide. The collection continues to grow actively today through staff collections and exchange. The emphasis is on collections from the Western Hemisphere, but virtually all areas of the world are represented.New York Botanical Gardenlbriscoe@nybg.orghttps://orcid.org/0000-0002-3900-4450http://sweetgum.nybg.org/science/BriscoeLauralbriscoe@nybg.orgCollections Manager of Cryptogamic Herbariumhttps://orcid.org/0000-0002-3900-4450contentProviderWatsonKimberlyAssistant Director of the Herbarium for Botanical Information Managementkwatson@nybg.orgcontentProviderTo the extent possible under law, the publisher has waived all rights to these data and has dedicated them to the 2024-03-29T05:32:39-07:00Consortium of Bryophyte Herbaria - 3f21ed57-8a7b-4d70-b1a1-11e6b451ce23UTF-8Darwin Core Archivehttps://bryophyteportal.org/portal/collections/misc/collprofiles.php?collid=3NYNew York Botanical Gardenhttps://bryophyteportal.org/portal/content/collicon/nybg.jpghttp://sweetgum.nybg.org/science/http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/3.0/BriscoeLauralbriscoe@nybg.orgCollections Manager of Cryptogamic Herbariumhttps://orcid.org/0000-0002-3900-4450WatsonKimberlyAssistant Director of the Herbarium for Botanical Information Managementkwatson@nybg.orgThe Steere Bryophyte Herbarium holds perhaps the most important collection of bryophytes in the world in terms of the number of specimens, and the geographical and taxonomic depth and breadth.
