Harvard University Botany Libraries

  • Orchidaceae Type Specimen Project
    The Harvard University Herbaria (HUH), with sponsorship from the HUH Botany Libraries, was funded to provide online access to 7,050 type specimens of Orchidaceae, and 8900 pages of associated published text and illustrations that include original descriptions, or protologues, for about 2000 of the type specimens. The study of plant diversity depends upon verification of research materials by comparison with the type specimens and protologues. The herbarium and library collections in Orchidaceae were selected because of their importance to a large research and horticultural community - they are considered second only to the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew, in geographic coverage and detailed documentation.

Harvard University, Ernst Mayr Library of the Museum of Comparative Zoology

  • The MCZ Ernst Mayr Library Artwork Collection is a publicly accessible database and retrieval system of digitized images, from holdings of the Library's Special Collections and Archives, produced in support of zoological research. Created under the auspices of Harvard's Library Digital Initiative, the first component of the Collection contains watercolors and drawings by Jacques Burkhardt, who was MCZ founder Louis Agassiz's personal and principal artist. The bulk of Burkhardt's artwork was produced on the Thayer Expedition to Brazil (1865-1866), led by Agassiz. The Collection can be accessed by taxonomic classification, common name, collection location, image creator, annotation-text keyword, and other fields.
