Phyllanthaceae of the N.C.W. Beadle Herbarium

The 'Phyllanthaceae of the N.C.W. Beadle Herbarium' collection aims to contribute to the discovery, description and analysis of this cosmopolitan family of eudicots, with special focus on Australian Phyllanthaceae through collection, exchange, curation and study of high quality herbarium specimens and associated activities and collections based at the N.C.W. Beadle Herbarium and with collaborators. A particular local effort has been on Phyllanthaceae of Australia. The N.C.W. Beadle Herbarium holds 1,201 specimens of Phyllanthaceae, of which 1,180 were collected in Australia. The collection includes 161 species of Phyllanthaceae and 16 genera. Specimens have been collected from across mainland Australia. Specimens from outside Australia have been collected in China, Fiji, Indonesia, Jamaica, Malaysia, Papua New Guinea, the United Kingdom, and the United States. The specimen sheet collection of the N.C.W. Beadle Herbarium is databased and available to registered users for online data entry and data query. Records include most standard herbarium label fields (see http://www.une.edu.au/herbarium/collecting.php) as used across Australia (e.g. http://www.anbg.gov.au/cpbr/herbarium/collecting/field-note-book.html) including name, collector(s), locality and habitat.
