A herbarium is a research collection of pressed, dried, and labeled plant specimens arranged by a classification scheme. Herbarium specimens are references for plant identification and document plant locations, habitat, abundance, and flowering/fruiting periods.

A herbarium (plural: herbaria) is a collection of preserved plant specimens and associated data used for scientific study.[1]

The specimens may be whole plants or plant parts; these will usually be in dried form mounted on a sheet of paper (called "exsiccatae") but, depending upon the material, may also be stored in boxes or kept in alcohol or other preservative.[2] The specimens in a herbarium are often used as reference material in describing plant taxa; some specimens may be types.
