Collection Profile for: University of Central Oklahoma Lichen Herbarium (CSU-Lichens)
Faculty and graduate student research and Mycology classes add Fungi to the mycological collection that Dr. Clark L. Ovrebo began 18 years ago. With over 4,500 specimens, it is now the largest holding of higher fleshy fungi in the state of Oklahoma. The active lichen collection of Dr. Sheila A. Strawn and Steven G. Strawn, which consists of approximately 2000 specimens, will also be housed in the completed herbarium. Data from both of these mycological collections are already in electronic format and include digital images.
