National Herbarium of the Netherlands.
The main Herbarium consists of sheets on which the specimens are usually mounted in the pots
and other paraphernalia that were customary in the mid-18th Century Dutch collections. On the
sheets the text is written that was used for the Prodromus and often more or less verbatim cited
by Linnaeus in the Species.
By consequence the Herbarium contains a great number of syntypes and even holotypes of
Linnean names and is therefore one of the major herbaria to be consulted in solving problems in
nomenclature and typification.
Approximately 10,000 specimen.
| Number of microfiches | 495 |
