Updated information for 2111 herbaria (71%) in 140 countries (86%) listed in
INDEX HERBARIORUM, edition 8, and its supplements (published in TAXON) is
available for searching by institution, city, state, acronym, staff member,
correspondent, and research specialty (http://www.nybg.org/bsci/ih/ih.html).

Note that the Index is fully searchable on research specialty, so it also
