title: Black Hills State University Herbarium

description: The Herbarium has ca. 100,000 specimens and is one of the two largest herbaria in South Dakota. BHSC features the world&rsquo;s largest collection of the distinctive vascular flora of the ecologically unique Black Hills of South Dakota and Wyoming. The collection contains vascular plants, algae, bryophytes and lichens. In addition, the collection consists of approximately 4000 specimens of fungi and slime molds, which include nearly all of the South Dakota state records. The extant vascular plant collection includes a limited number of specimens from around the world; including collections by A. Eastwood, P.O. Schallert, L.S. Rose, J.A. Calder, B.C. Tharp, W.H. Duncan, A.E. Radford, J.M. Gillet, C.G. Pringle, O. Degner, P.A. Munz, E.J. Palmer, K. Biswas, and B. Rosengurtt. Other important collections include those of F.L. Bennett (former BHSC Curator) and M.L. Kravig (Orchidologist). BHSC is also home to one of the largest collections of Miocene age plant fossils from the Great Plains of North America, with at least 10,000 fossils housed from throughout the Great Plains. Type collections of several fossil species from J.R. Thomasson and M.L. Gabel are held in the collection. Grasses (Poaceae), hackberries (Celtis, Ulmaceae), sedges (Cyperaceae) and borages (Boraginaceae) are well represented.

title: Nomenclature and typification of Polygala nicaeensis (Polygalaceae) and its infraspecific taxa

description: This dataset contains the digitized treatments in Plazi based on the original journal article Manconi, Francesca, Peruzzi, Lorenzo (2026): Nomenclature and typification of Polygala nicaeensis (Polygalaceae) and its infraspecific taxa. PhytoKeys 270: 165-189, DOI: 10.3897/phytokeys.270.174954AbstractPolygala nicaeensis is a circum-Mediterranean species with uncertain infraspecific taxonomy, currently split into eight subspecies. As a first step of an ongoing taxonomic and systematic study, we have identified and studied 29 nomenclatural types (of which 23 lectotypes and one second-step neotype are designated here), to fix the application of all the names connected to this species. We also re-defined the year, place and authorship of first publication of P. nicaeensis itself, whose correct name is P. nicaeensis Risso ex Bray. Based on the types studied here, the currently widely-accepted P. nicaeensis subsp. mediterranea Chodat, widespread in the Mediterranean, becomes a heterotypic synonym of P. nicaeensis s. str. Finally, P. nicaeensis subsp. corsica and P. pedemontana E. P. Perrier & B. Verl. are confirmed as heterotypic synonyms, that apply to a species occurring in Corsica and Western Alps, whose correct priority name is P. corsica Boreau.

title: Chadron State College, High Plains Herbarium

description: Founded in 1958, the High Plains Herbarium at Chadron State College (CSCN) houses over 60,000 plant specimens and is the second largest collection in Nebraska. Historically our focus has been on the vascular flora of the Nebraska Panhandle, southwestern South Dakota and eastern Wyoming, with special emphasis on the Nebraska Pine Ridge escarpment and Sandhills. We also have a strong representation of material from the central Great Plains, particularly Nebraska and Kansas as well as the Rocky Mountains. In recent years we have expanded our holdings to include over 2000 bryophyte and nearly 1000 lichen specimens, mostly from the Nebraska Panhandle. The herbarium also houses the personal herbarium and library of plantsman Claude A. Barr and the personal papers of ethnobotanist George Morgan, in addition an extensive historic pharmaceutical collection.

title: University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill Herbarium; Max & Fran Hommersand Algae Herbarium: Algae

description: The Max &amp; Fran Hommersand Algae Herbarium is curated by the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill Herbarium (NCU).  Note that algae collected before 1995 by Hommersand were placed in formalin. Gabrielson's non-coralline specimens are a mix; if pressed fresh this is noted on the specimen label. Gabrielson's coralline specimens were not put in formalin unless noted on the label. NCU also curates vascular plants, lichens, fungi, bryophytes, &amp; plant fossils. NCU, located in the center of the UNC-CH campus, welcomes visitors &amp; researchers; contact Curator for information on hours &amp; parking. STATEMENT ON OFFENSIVE CONTENT ON SPECIMEN LABELS: Collection records at NCU may contain language that reflects historical place or taxon names in an original form that is no longer acceptable or appropriate in an inclusive environment. Because NCU preserves data in their original form to retain authenticity and facilitate research, we have chosen to facilitate conversations and are committed to address the problem of racial, derogatory and demeaning language that may be found in our database. Insensitive or offensive language is not condoned by NCU. We recognize the land and sovereignty of Native &amp; Indigenous nations in Chapel Hill, in North Carolina, in North America, and across the world. The North Carolina Botanical Garden and the North Carolina Botanical Garden Foundation acknowledge that the story told about the history of the land we steward has been incomplete. These lands were home to multiple tribes &amp; the ancestors of the Occaneechi Band of the Saponi Nation persist locally to this day. We recognize that at least one of the adjacent lands we steward, Mason Farm Biological Reserve, was first cleared, cultivated, &amp; worked by Native Americans &amp; later by African enslaved people. We invite you to reflect on our individual &amp; community roles in knowing important &amp; untold stories about the land we each steward.

title: Pittsburg State University, Theodore M. Sperry Herbarium

description: Specimens of the Sperry Herbarium are used in support of teaching several botany courses, outreach, and reasearch by undergraduates, graduates, and facutly. Its 54,430 specimens document the distribution and natural variation of vascular plants and bryophytes, primarily from Kansas, adjacent states and North America, but also 60 foreign countries. Approximately 12,650 new collections have been added the past decade, mostly comprising student collections. Ca. 1400 vascular plant specimens are backlogged from North America, another ca. 300 from Madagascar and hundreds of bryophytes. Many specimens are unicates. Important holdings from abroad include the Democratic Republic of the Congo (T. M. Sperry), Peru (H. Tuomisto), Myrtaceae (H.S. MacKee and others from New Caledonia); Eugenia and Syzygium from Madagascar, Poaceae (worldwide), and 30 isotypes. Data for ca. 7500 bryophytes are housed here or at the Consortium of Bryophyte Herbaria (https://bryophyteportal.org), including ca. 250 from Peru of Timme. Some collections of fungi and algae used primarily in teaching will be datasased in the future. Phenological data (flowering/fruiting) and geocoordinates are present for ca. 45 percent of the specimens, and over 15 percent are vouchers for published research. The top in-house collectors numerically are W.W. Holland, S.Y. Pryer, T.M. Sperry, S.L. Timme, M. Daines and N. Snow. Student and volunteer curatorial assistance, and financial support from the PSU College of Arts and Sciences and the National Science Foundation (CSBR 1756276) are gratefully acknowledged.

title: Saint Ambrose University Herbarium

description: In 1914 the herbarium of Saint Ambrose University was established as an addition to the biology department by Monsignor Ulrich A. Hauber. The herbarium currently holds over 900 of Hauber&rsquo;s collections that were among the first specimens added to the facility and just over half of his collections were from the Quad Cities area. Today&rsquo;s herbarium holds approximately 4500 specimens and, though it includes bryophytes, pteridophytes, gymnosperms, and fungi, flowering plants comprise nearly 90% of the total. Over 96% of the St. Ambrose University herbarium hails from the United States, with the remainder having been collected in the Bahamas, Brazil, Canada, Germany, and Switzerland. Just over 3200 specimens in the St. Ambrose University herbarium were collected in Iowa and about 2300 (~50% of the total) document the flora of the Quad Cities region, the area within which the university is found.

title: South Dakota State University, C. A. Taylor Herbarium

description: The South Dakota State University (SDC) Herbarium dates back to 1881 and the foundation of South Dakota College. The herbarium was designated the C. A. Taylor Herbarium in 1994 to honor Charles Arthur Taylor, Jr. who dedicated 40 years of his life to its maintenance and growth. A significant part of the herbarium is the many collections "Charlie" Taylor brought with him from the Ithaca, NY area and elsewhere. The herbarium at SDSU has grown to &gt;60,000 accessions due largely to more recent floristic studies focused on such areas as the Black Hills National Forest, the Fort Pierre and Grand River National Grasslands, and wetlands of the Prairie Pothole Region. We are in the early stages of specimen digitization, with &gt;15,000 databased (none imaged) thus far.

title: The third report of Cunninghamellaceae fungi in the Brazilian Amazon forest: Two new species of <i>Cunninghamella</i> isolated from soil

description: Five strains of <i>Cunninghamella</i> were isolated from Amazon forest soils in the state of Amazonas, Brazil. Strains URM 9031 and URM 9187 form sporophores with main axes ending in a vesicle or dividing into several branches with globose to subglobose sporangiola. Lateral branches can rebranch up to four times. The maximum temperature growth (Tmax) is 38 C. Strains URM 9032, URM 9199, and URM 9108 form axial sporophores ending in a vesicle or forked, with lateral branches rebranching up to four times; sporangiola are exclusively globose. The Tmax is 41 C. Based on distinct morphologies, along with physiological and multilocus phylogenetic evidence of the nuc rDNA regions ITS1-5.8S-ITS2 (internal transcribed spacer [ITS]) and partial D1–D2 domains (28S) and the elongation factor-1 alpha (<i>EF-1α</i>) gene, <i>Cunninghamella ramificata</i> sp. nov. and <i>C. amazonica</i> sp. nov. are proposed.
