Abstract
This article contains information about herbarium specimens of gymnosperms from the herbarium collection of the Herzen State Pedagogical University of Russia (HERZ). The considered materials belong to the historical part of the herbarium and are mostly dated to the end of the 19th – beginning of the 20th century. The article provides information about the collection sites for herbarium specimens available in the collection (mostly – with the territory of modern Russia and Ukraine; however, some specimens were brought from foreign countries: Switzerland, the Republic of Korea, Japan). Information is provided on the systematic position of the specimens (most representatives belong to the class Pinopsida), as well as on the scientists-collectors who collected and identified the plants. As a result of the study, 6 herbarium specimens of gymnosperms marked "dupla" were found, collected during the expeditions of the Resettlement Administration. In addition to research, a brief description of the measures for the inventory and systematization of the available samples of gymnosperms is given. The article also provides comparative information on the state of similar herbarium collections of other higher educational institutions of the Russian Federation.
