Description

In the BCN herbarium about 64,000 bryophyte specimens are preserved, most of them from the Catalan Countries and especially from the Pyrenees. Part of the bryophyte herbarium comes from the old Faculty of Science (BCC) herbarium. In 2017, the bryophyte herbarium of the Autonomous University of Barcelona (BCB) was incorporated through a transfer agreement signed with this university. It contains about 60,000 specimens and is the most important bryophyte herbarium in the Iberian Peninsula. Includes the collections of Dra. Creu Casas and their scientific team. In all cases, the herbarium numbers have been preserved and are now cited as part of the BCN-Bryo collection, indicating in parentheses their original membership.
