Tropicos - Missouri Botanical Garden Contains nomenclatural, bibliographic, and specimen data accumulated in MBG’s electronic databases during the past 25 years. This system has over 1.2 million scientific names and 3.9 million specimen records.
Index Herbariorum - New York Botanical Garden Index Herbariorum is a guide to the world's herbaria. Information is available for searching by institution, city, state, acronym, staff member, correspondent, research specialty, and important collections.

Type Specimens in the University of Florida Herbarium This link opens in a new window Open Access A nomenclatural type specimen is a herbarium sheet(s) or illustration to which the name of a taxon (species, genus, subspecies, etc.) is permanently assigned, whether as a correct name or as a synonym. The type specimen chosen for the name is not necessarily the typical or representative element of a taxon (International Code of Botanical Nomenclature, 2000). Type specimens coupled with published descriptions may be considered the foundation of scientific plant names, botanical nomenclature.
