Welcome to the Herbaria
|
|
The University and Jepson Herbaria of the University of California at Berkeley are two
collections of pressed plants housed together along with research labs, libraries, and archives.
Together the Herbaria hold about 2,200,000 specimens, one of the largest collections in North America.
|
•The University Herbarium, established in 1895, holds botanical collections
from around the world.
|
•The Jepson Herbarium, established in 1950, specializes in the vascular
plants of California.

Updated version now available for collectors: A free MS Excel template to manage your collection data,
make labels, and easily upload your specimen data to our database, CollectionSpace. Specimens accompanied by metadata
in this spreadsheet will be given top priority for accessioning in UC/JEPS. ...

Woody vines do the twist! The research of Joyce Chery, done as part of her PhD dissertation in the labs of UC/JEPS curators Chelsea Specht and Carl Rothfels,
was featured in the New York Times.
She showed how the unique evolution and development of wood in lianas allows them to be both strong and flexible, to twist through the forest canopy without breaking. Dr. Chery is currently an assistant professor at Cornell University.

The University and Jepson Herbaria recently completed a NPS funded project to database and image over 1000 specimens collected by John Muir and housed at the John Muir National Historic Site in Martinez, California. Specimens were collected in Canada and Indiana in 1864-1867 and on his world tour in 1903-1904. Many of the specimens were in poor condition and were carefully remounted by plant mounter extraordinaire, Ana Penny. The Muir specimens are accessible via our Specimen Portal: https://webapps.cspace.berkeley.edu/ucjeps/publicsearch/publicsearch/

A second paper has been published by the same UC/JEPS team referenced in a previous news item on this page (April 11, 2017), adding phylogenetic methods to the study of diversity and endemism in the California flora. This novel "spatial phylogenetics" approach makes it possible to evaluate biodiversity from an evolutionary standpoint, including discovering significant areas of neo- and paleo-endemism.

"A successful example of advancing an herbarium with
coordinated development in the strengths of both science
and public programs is the University and Jepson Herbaria of
the University of California, Berkeley. Their active research is
complemented by the major role they play in the Consortium
of California Herbaria.
They have helped pioneer data portal development and eFlora
projects, and have an active public education program. In
addition the molecular lab and the herbarium are well
integrated and are incorporated in the plans for the future.
Such examples should be sought out and highlighted by the
systematics community."
