The emphasis is on the northern California flora, and includes a great number of rare, threatened, and endangered plant species. Established with specimens donated by the late Professor Vesta Holt in the 1950's, the Herbarium now contains more than 125,000 dried and mounted specimens. The majority of samples are flowering plants, conifers, and ferns, but bryophytes, lichens, and especially slime molds, are also well represented. The Herbarium is used extensively for identification of sensitive and other plant species by various agencies and individuals. Loans of herbarium specimens are made to any higher academic institutions who request them.CHSC - Ahart Herbarium, CSU Chico - Vascular Plants(530)-898-5381chatfield@csuchico.eduhttps://www.csuchico.edu/herbarium/400 West First StreetChicoCA95929-0515HatfieldColleenchatfield@csuchico.eduherbarium directorcontentProviderJanewayLawrenceherbarium curatorljaneway@csuchico.educontentProviderTo the extent possible under law, the publisher has waived all rights to these data and has dedicated them to the 2026-06-22T11:47:47-07:00Symbiota Local Portal - 68b23543-3562-4107-9589-6d0ad2926765UTF-8Darwin Core Archivehttps://dev010.symbiota.org/Portal/collections/misc/collprofiles.php?collid=44CHSCVascularPlantsCHSC - Ahart Herbarium, CSU Chico - Vascular Plantshttps://www.cch2.org/portal/content/collicon/chscvascularplants.jpghttps://www.csuchico.edu/herbarium/http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0/HatfieldColleenchatfield@csuchico.eduherbarium directorJanewayLawrenceherbarium curatorljaneway@csuchico.edu<p>The Chico State Herbarium is the most complete repository of plant specimens from northeastern California.
