Troy University Herbarium (TROY)

GBIF publisher since
22 March 2022

Description

The Troy University Herbarium (TROY) is housed in the Math Science Complex (MSCX) Room 216. The collection consists of over 53,000 specimens of primarily vascular plants with a moderate collection of bryophytes and lichens. The herbarium includes plants from throughout the United States, although those from the Southeastern United States form the majority of the collection. The herbarium has an active role in education, research, and public service. Herbarium staff and graduate students assist in plant identifications and provide botanical information upon request. The herbarium is open to any visitor, professional or amateur, with a legitimate reason for consulting the collection. Although the herbarium is available for use most weekdays, calling in advance of visits is recommended. In addition to the collection of plant specimens, the herbarium houses a small library, emphasizing floras, systematic monographs, and nomenclatural references.
