Biodiversity science is improved when silent herbaria speak
PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.Herbaria in the Global South are critical yet underutilized resources for biodiversity science and often absent from international databases and research networks. We highlight the phenomenon of “silent herbaria” using Nigeria as a case study and quantify how these collections fill important gaps in global biodiversity knowledge.
