Abstract:

In order to preserve biodiversity on Earth, it is necessary to carry out an inventory of all forms of life as soon as possible, and this task is especially relevant for little-studied territories, including Russia. The terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems of Russia represent the largest array of natural extratropical ecosystems in Eurasia. To solve the problem of inventorying flora and fauna, biological collections are of particular importance; in a number of reviews by scientists (mainly foreign ones) the attention of the scientific and civil community is drawn to the problem of preserving and

Abstract:

Herbaria remain the primary means of documenting plant life on earth, and the number of herbaria worldwide and the number of specimens they hold continues to grow. Digitization of herbarium specimens, though far from complete, has increased the discoverability of herbarium holdings and has increased the range of studies from which data from herbarium specimens can be used. The rather large number of herbaria about which no current information is available is a source of concern, as is herbarium consolidation and removal of herbaria to offsite storage facilities. Partnerships are key to the fut

This paper offers an in-depth report on the best practices for the conservation and preservation of herbaria within library and museum collections. A herbarium (singular) is a collection of dried and pressed plant specimens, typically mounted onto paper and accompanied by a certain degree of recorded information. These organic specimens tend to be housed in museums or special collections libraries, where their handling can be carefully monitored and/or restricted. Each herbarium is typically one-of-a-kind and may serve as a vital primary source on human exploration, taxonomy, natural history a

Herbaria are undergoing a renaissance as valuable sources of genomic data for exploring plant evolution, ecology, and diversity. Ancient DNA retrieved from herbarium specimens can provide unprecedented glimpses into past plant communities, their interactions with biotic and abiotic factors, and the genetic changes that have occurred over time. Here, we highlight recent advances in the field of herbarium genomics and discuss the challenges and opportunities of combining data from modern and time-stamped historical specimens.

HERBARIUM PLANT SPECIMENS AND THEIR HERBARIUM HOLDINGS Natural history collections around the globe represent a dormant source of taxonomic and biogeographic information, as it is estimated that one to three billion specimens are included in such collections (Soberon 1999; Ariño 2010). In the case of botanical collections, the worldwide distribution of specimens across herbaria is often uneven and biased by colonialism, with most specimens housed in the global North, and in many cases resulting in a reverse latitudinal relationship between plant diversity present in nature and the location of

Despite their ecological and economic importance, the majority of plant species and their conservation status are poorly known. Only 4% of plants have been assessed globally and listed on the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species; and without plant conservation assessments, many plant species will not feature in conservation planning. Herbarium collection information can significantly increase the number of plant conservation assessments. Thus, the aims of this thesis were: (1) to investigate how the quality of herbarium-based conservation assessments can be optimised; (2) to assess the extent t

This thesis explores the history of botany as a global collection-based science by tracing parallels between utopian traditions and botanical collecting, from their sixteenth-century beginnings to the present. A range of botanical collections, such as gardens, herbaria and classification systems, have played a central role in the struggle to discover a global or universal scientific order for the chaotic, diverse and locally shaped kingdom of plants. These collections and utopia intersect historically, and are characterised by the same epistemology of collecting: the creation of order through

AbstractThis chapter aims to present a review of the knowledge of the bryological flora for the São Tomé and Príncipe Islands (Gulf of Guinea). An updated catalogue is presented, as well as a brief overview of the first expeditions conducted by the University of Coimbra. The labels of the historical herbarium collections and correspondence were analyzed, which provides an important source of data contributing toward research in taxonomy and conservation of these oceanic islands. Since 2007, exploratory fieldwork was carried out in different habitats of this archipelago along an altitudinal gradient, aiming to improve the knowledge of the ecology and distribution patterns of its bryophyte flora. A total of 304 taxa of bryophytes (133 mosses, 164 liverworts and seven hornworts) are currently reported, of which 21 are endemic to São Tomé and Príncipe and 144 species are shared endemics with the African continent. Several vouchers, especially in the herbaria of the University of Lisbon and of the California Academy of Sciences, are still under study and will likely provide further insights and new discoveries.

Abstract:

New World plants were exhaustively catalogued in the floras and herbaria produced by the great scientific expeditions led by European naturalists in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, such as the Royal Botanical Expedition to New Granada (1783–1816), directed by José Celestino Mutis. Species were primarily illustrated in a way that would allow their identification according to Linnaean taxonomies. Three contemporary artists from Colombia—Alberto Baraya, María Fernanda Cardoso and Eulalia de Valdenebro—have reworked the Enlightenment norms of botanical illustration in order to draw attention to their many erasures and to chart environmental change over the past two centuries. Baraya’s Herbario de plantas artificiales (2002–) celebrates the anomalies and aberrations that were smoothed out in the European quest for a universal system of classification, exposing the relationship between modern Western science and the dynamics of economic and cultural dispossession. De Valdenebro’s seed collections contrast the homogenization and commercialization of transgenic varieties with the greater biodiversity of native seeds, whose cultivation has unfolded within a much higher degree of reciprocity between humans and their environment. In On the Marriages of Plants (2018), Cardoso reflects on Linnaeus’s use of sexual terms borrowed from the human world in her exploration of more recent research into reciprocal relationships between plants, insects, and humans. I bring these projects into dialogue with a selection of illustrations by Abel Rodríguez (Mogaje Guihu), an artist whose work preserves the ancestral knowledge of the Nonuya and Muinane communities in the Colombian Amazon. Contrasting with Linnaean abstraction, Rodríguez’s drawings and paintings depict rainforest ecosystems in ways that cast light on Amazonian concepts of cohabitation and the co-constitution of human and nonhuman subjects. These enter into conflict with two dominant Western paradigms: extraction, on the one hand, and conservation, on the other.

Abstract:

Casapini’s Herbarium is an 18th century manuscript, belonging to the Palatina Library in Parma and currently stored at the Botanical Garden of Parma University. The Herbarium collects nearly 200 samples of dried plant specimens that have been severely affected by physical, biological and chemical degradation. In 2016 the Inner Wheel Club Italia-Parma Est, an international female association, decided to fund the conservation of this Herbarium in order to preserve it and allow its study. A large team of professionals, including conservators, chemists, physicists and a botanist, has been working on the project to secure this unique but very fragile object. This paper discusses the condition assessment, the identification of degradation processes and the first conservation approach to the Casapini Herbarium. Issues related to the treatment of heavily corroded areas, the resewing of the sections and the future storage of the manuscript are also identified and highlighted for further research.

Abstract:

Despite mounting loss of organisms to extinction, new species are being reported every year. Many are discovered in herbaria among already collected specimens, some stored for years. Plant collections are essential to understanding biodiversity because they document the plants themselves. Since specimens have been collected for several hundred years, they can be used to track changes in climate, indicated by shifts in the time of flowering or the appearance of warm-climate species in more temperate areas. They can also document the spread of invasive species and degradation of habitats. Herbaria are playing a key role in supporting conservation efforts, and seed banks are among the most important ways of protecting species’ integrity into the future.

Abstract:

Abstract The lichen flora of mainland Ecuador is still insufficiently known. For the purposes of collecting material, four expeditions were undertaken during the period 1972-1985. The herbarium at GB now comprisesc. 10 000 lichen specimens from Ecuador, of which the majority are epiphytic macrolichens. About 160 genera have been identified so far. The collecting work was concentrated in the Andes, particularly in forests between 1000 and 4000 m altitude. The lower montane rainforest (800-2500 m), the cloud forest (2500-3400 m), and the grass paramo (3400-4000 m) are especially rich in lichens. The most important macrolichen genera of these zones are: Sticta, Leptogium, Erioderma, Lobaria, Usnea, Coccocarpia, Pseudocyphellaria, Everniastrum, Hypotrachyna, Heterodermia, and Parmotrema. It is premature to present a detailed survey of the phytogeography of the area. Apart from cosmopolitan taxa, the lichen flora of Ecuador includes neotropical, pantropical, American-African, circum-Pacific, and southern, and northern temperate elements. Examples of lichens found in some selected habitats are given and many lichens are recorded here for the first time from Ecuador.

In recent years, it has become urgently neces-sary to update and reassess the risk of extinction for species of community interest that grow in natural habitats in our country. Therefore, in 2020, a research program was initiated in the Spontaneous Flora and Herb

Abstract:

Under the current conditions, when we witness a drastic decline in plant diversity globally, the main mission of botanical gardens, which is the preservation and conservation of biodiversity, has become a necessity. The technological progress and the intensive use of natural resources have considerably increased the anthropogenic impact on biological diversity, essentially reducing the number of species and varieties of living organisms. In the global practice, botanical gardens are mainly involved in ex situ conservation activities, based in particular on the creation and maintenance of livin

Abstract:

Highly imperiled Oregon white oak ecosystems are a regional conservation priority of numerous organizations, including Oregon Metro, a regional government serving over one million people in the Portland area. Previously dominant systems in the Pacific Northwest, upland prairie and oak woodlands are now experiencing significant threat, with only 2% remaining in the Willamette Valley in small fragments (Hulse et al. 2002). These fragments are of high conservation value because of the rich biodiversity they support, including rare and endemic species, such as Delphinium leucophaeum (Oregon Depart

Abstract:

Botanical research and botanical gardens have had a long history, originating for practicalities such as medicinal uses. This module covers historical and current roles of botanical gardens and other plant collections, including arboreta, seed banks, and herbaria. Many botanical gardens are involved in long-term research (e.g., climate change) and public education. Additionally, botanical gardens and the like are exceedingly important in plant conservation due to both their extensive ex-situ collections and accumulated knowledge.
