Virtual Carpological Herbarium
The “Virtual Carpological Herbarium” is an online collection of 3D models of fruits and seeds, primarily featuring native plant species. Currently, more than 500 models have been published.
All the 3D models were reconstructed using photogrammetric methods, which documented their prime stage for further studies.
Users can freely move and rotate the 3D models by dragging on the interface. Most macroscopic details can be observed when the models are magnified.

Carpological collection
The carpological collection consists of the seeds and fruits of plants and is an additional resource for those working with our collections.
As a supplement to our herbarium sheets we also hold a ‘carpological’ collection. This is essentially made up of seed and fruit, as well as any plant parts which are too large to be incorporated into the main collection as a standard herbarium sheet. Many of these cross reference with the herbarium sheets and help to enrich the preserved collection.
