Summary[edit]
| Description |
English: Fischer Herbarium (Acronym: FRC) has been named after Cecil Ernest Claude Fischer, who was an officer posted to Forest Service in the erstwhile Madras Presidency. During his service, he made extensive collections from the Nilgiris, Palanis and Coimbatore Forest Divisions of Tamil Nadu and Seshachalam Hills and Ganjam District of Andhra Pradesh. The original collections from all these areas were sent to the Indian Botanic Gardens, Kolkatta. Duplicate specimens of most of the Fischer's collections are deposited in the Fischer Herbarium. Apart from this, about a century old plant collections made by the Forest Officers, T. F. Bourdillon and M. Rama Rao from the erstwhile Travancore (presently in Kerala State) and few collections made by P. F. Fyson from the hill tops of Nilgiris and Palanis and few collections made by other Botanists are also deposited in the Fischer Herbarium. These old collections form the nucleus of the Herbarium. The Herbarium had its beginning in the year 1911. It is located in the Forest Campus, R. S. Puram, Coimbatore.
