Muséum National d'Histoire Naturelle, Laboratoire de Phanèrogamie, Paris.
This herbarium is kept as an herbier historique in Paris. Lamarck sold his herbarium to J.A.C.
Roeper in 1824 who took it to Basel and Rostock. It was acquired by the University of Rostock
in 1875 and then offered to Paris for FRF 12,000 by Goebel, who needed the money to buy
laboratory equipment. (Goebel had first offered the collection to Kew but received too low a bid).
The herbarium is the basis for the botanical methodology of Lamarck et al. in the Encyclopédie
méthodique.
19,000 specimens.
