Fielding-Druce Herbarium. Department of Plant Sciences, Oxford University. Oxford.
This herbarium was arranged to illustrate Morison's planned work Plantarum Historiae
Universalis Oxoniensis. Only Pars secunda, printed in 1680 was published. The specimens
which were obtained from numerous contributors, come from many parts of the world, including
Europe, Syria, India, South Africa, North America and the West Indies. Linnaeus examined
many of the herbarium's specimens during his stay in Oxford in 1736.
Approximately 5,200 specimens.
