The Bangladesh Collection of Higher Plants currently consists of approximately 670 specimens; predominantly of flowering plants. A broad range of families are covered by the collection, and the families most represented in this collection are Euphorbiaceae (45 specimens), Rubiaceae (34 specimens) and Orchidaceae (30 specimens).
The specimens were collected at the end of the twentieth century, mainly by M.A. Rahman, but also by many others, including Dr. Christopher Wilcock, the Keeper of the University of Aberdeen's Herbarium and Senior Lecturer in the university's School of Biological Sciences.
Duplicates of specimens in this collection can be found in other Herbaria such as the Bangladesh National Herbarium in Dacca, and especially at the Royal Botanic Garden, Edinburgh. | Source: | University of Aberdeen | Address: | King's College,
