The Robert L. Gilbertson Mycological Herbarium at the University of Arizona houses over 40,000 accessioned specimens of fungi and fungus-like organisms, with special collections of rusts, polypores, and corticioid fungi. Our holdings are global in origin, with special attention to the macrofungi of Arizona and the southwestern United States, Mexico, Hawaii, Alaska, and the Gulf Coast region of the USA. Recent expansions include over 30,000 accessions of endophytic fungi from arctic, boreal, temperate, and tropical sites.
