  • Notes

    Updated Aug 2017 (correspondent update). Note from the MARY website :" Due to elimination of the Hebarium staff, it is no longer possible to visit The Norton-Brown Herbarium without special arrangements. By necessity the focus of the Herbarium is preservation of existing specimens and the data they contain." At present, there is no indication of who should be contacted about access to the herbarium.
