ENGLISH
The Ghana Herbarium of the University of Ghana dataset contains over 85,000 records documenting herbarium sheets and their biodiversity information. 55% of the records are georeferenced by latitude and longitude. About 75% of the records deal with specimen found in Ghana. The collection also includes several type specimens.
Many sub-collections are accommodated in this collection, assembled by an international suit of collectors such as A.A. Enti, C.D. Adams, C.W. Agyakwah, D.M. John, F.R. Irvine, G.K. Akpabla, G.W. Lawson, J.B. Hall, J. Jenik, J.K. Morton, J.M. Lock, M. Hossain and R. Rose-Inns.
