  • Notes

    The Herbarium of Iran's National Museum of Natural History was first formed in the 1970’s with the proposal of Professor Karl Heinz Rechinger, famous Austrian botanist . This Herbarium has been created in the Department of Environment of Iran with the aim of gathering and maintaining the plant diversity of areas managed by the Department of Environment of Iran and specific habitats. It is to be hoped that in the near future, we will see the development and promotion of this valuable collection by increasing the space and facilities provided, including cabinet rails and assistance of other botanist researchers at the national level.
