Bryophytes at the Natural History Museum, University of Oslo. The bryophyte herbarium at the Botanical Museum, the University of Oslo, comprises a Norwegian herbarium (ca. 185,000 specimens, of which ca. 100,000 mosses, ca. 15,000 peat mosses and ca. 35,000 hepatics), a general herbarium (ca. 80,000), a type herbarium with ca. 100 types and a collection of older exsiccata (ca. 5,000 specimens).
