Here's a curious specimen seen today on our class tour of the Allan Herbarium today in Lincoln. It's a giant *Ruppia* seed ball collected from Te Waihora Lake Ellesmere in Canterbury NZ. This large seed ball likely accumulated over many decades. It is an echo of a time before 1968 when the lagoon had clear water and aquatic plants like this grew along its floor stabilising the sediment. Everything changed in the Wahine storm of 1968 and the lagoon has been murky since.

Here's another plant that we saw on our class tour of the Allan Herbarium today in Lincoln. This is New Zealand's extinct mistletoe, *Trilepidea adamsii*, from the North Island. This was the last specimen collected of this species, from 1954 in Maungakawa near Cambridge in the Waikato.

You can read more about this species on the NZ Plant Conservation Network's webpage: nzpcn.org.nz/flora/species/tri

Here's a photo from our class tour of the Allan Herbarium today. This drawer contains some of the New Zealand native plants collected in 1769 on Captain Cook's first voyage around NZ. Shown here are the orchids *Earina mucronata* and *Winika cunninghamii* and the large sedge *Gahnia xanthocarpa*. When properly pressed and stored, dried plants can last essentially forever.

Today my Biological Diversity class at #LincolnUniversityNZ toured the Allan Herbarium at #ManaakiWhenua. It is NZ's largest pressed plant collection, a treasure trove of hundreds of thousands of botanical marvels.

Botanist Sue Gibb talked about how the herbarium works and showed us some amazing plants, including type specimens used to describe new species, extinct plants and first collections of new weeds, and some of the plants collected on Captain Cook's voyages.

A photo of students gathered between a row of tall cabinets. At the back botanist Sue Gibbs has a cabinet open and is talking about some grass specimens. My full-res photo is on Flickr at https://www.flickr.com/photos/mollivan_jon/54505210018/
