Welcome to the Mid-Atlantic Herbaria Consortium

The Mid-Atlantic Herbaria Consortium (MAHC) includes herbaria from New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Delaware, Maryland and D.C. We invite any Mid-Atlantic herbaria to join us online in digitizing the rich resources that are our regional plant collections. We offer digitization training, support, imaging equipment loans, and other services to help new Mid-Atlantic herbaria create their own virtual collections in the MAHC portal.

We also welcome plant collectors, citizen scientists, amateur botanists, and plant enthusiasts to add to our observation records with their own field data and images, to use the portal as a field data entry system before passing herbarium specimens to Consortium members, or to contribute to MAHC by joining us in our specimen transcription efforts through a crowd sourcing module. Together, through all of these efforts, we will build a better virtual herbarium for the Mid-Atlantic, thus building a stronger understanding of the Mid-Atlantic flora and how it has changed along with this dynamic region.

MAHC began during the NSF-funded Mid-Atlantic Megalopolis Project and builds on that critical, early digitization work. Please direct any questions, comments, and requests to midatlanticherbaria@gmail.com.

This site is brought to you in collaboration with the SEINet Network. When you search this portal, or any of the other SEINet portal partners, you are getting results from our one central database. The SEINet portal network contains 24 million records from over 450 collections.
