HERBARIA AND RELATED RESOURCES


Other herbaria of the Intermountain Region

Specimen portals

collection
  • intermountainbiota.org - Intermountainbiota is a network of SYMBIOTA portals (such as SEINET, OregonFlora, CNH, SERNEC, etc.), and brings together data from hundreds of thousands of herbarium specimens from herbaria all across the world.
  • mycoportal.org - Portal for collection records retaining to higher fungi (excluding lichens). 
  • lichenportal.org - Portal for collection records retaining to lichenized fungi.
  • bryophyteportal.org - Portal for collection records retaining to bryophytes (also known as mosses, liverworts, and hornworts).
  • www.gbif.org - GBIF, the Global Biodiversity Information Facility, is the primary aggregator of the metadata associated with natural history collections. Unlike SYMBIOTA portals, however, GBIF does not provide images of specimens.
