  • Notes

    Entered Jan 2016. This is a very small herbarium, managed and run only to provide a place to store specimens of ethnobotanical interest for a small scale research unit at Macquarie University. We have chosen to register an independent herbarium as publication for scholarly journals in this field requires unique records to be retained of all samples collected for testing. Consequently we have a lot of duplicate records, often from the same plant, many of which do not have floristic parts or other useful diagnostic features. These are not acceptable in other herbaria we have available to us.
