Komarov Botanical Institute of the Academy of Sciences, St. Petersburg.
The C.B. Trinius graminae herbarium represents Trinius' personal grass herbarium, which was
donated to the Imperial Academy of Sciences, St. Petersburg, in 1841, and later inherited by the
Komarov Botanical Institute. In this unique collection there are a total of 3,281 folders and
about 10,700 sheets. Roughly ten percent of the sheets contain types, often with original
drawings used for illustrations in Trinius' publications. The collection has been maintained as a
unit, and has been little disturbed by curation, or addition of material after Trinius' death in 1844.
