M. J. Wynne, Curator

The University of Michigan Herbarium houses 96,000 collections of algae, including 600 types. The collection is especially notable for marine algae from New England, Florida, Bermuda, and the West Indies. The holdings include strong representation from Central and South America, exceptionally so for the Galápagos Islands, as well as from the Pacific Coast of Canada and the United States, and from Japan, Indonesia, South Africa, the Indian Ocean, and the Marshall Islands.

Important collections include the personal herbaria of W. R. Taylor and M. J. Wynne, and much material from classical exsiccatae, including ca. 45 folios of the Phycotheca Boreali-Americana and W. H. Harvey's specimens from Australia, Sri Lanka, and Tonga.
