A collection of Erbario Centrale Italiano
The Rodolfo Emilio Giuseppe Pichi Sermolli's (1912-2005) herbarium, acquired in 2007 consists exclusively of ferns and related plants: it is one of the world’s richest collections of its kind, assembled and curated by a man who was one of the world’s leading experts on pteridophytes. The more than 19,000 specimens contained within it, including the original type specimens of no fewer than 190 taxa, come from over 100 different countries across every continent and derive from both personal collections and exchanges with foreign scholars.
