Algae

Prague’s algologists have traditionally studied microalgae whose vouchers are stored in the form of permanent slides or photos / pictures. Therefore, the algae herbarium collection is relatively small. It contains ca 5000 specimens which have been used for teaching and research purposes. In 2009, a part of the algae collection (herbarium specimens and permanent slides) was digitalized (project of P. Škaloud, http://botany.natur.cuni.cz/algo/database/).
