Abstract

The Environment and Animal Sciences Biodiversity Pathway at Auckland’s Mt Albert Unitec campus ffers a Bachelor of Applied Science (B.A.Sci.) and as of 2023 a Master of Applied Science (M.A.Sci.). For these degrees, students undertaking environmental studies are taught a range of field skills (Fig. 1),ecology and notably taxonomy (Fig. 2,3). To aid with teaching field ecology and taxonomy, in 2001 the faculty started what was initially intended to be a ‘small’ teaching herbarium. SCOPE The Flora and Lichenized Mycobiota of New Zealand. UNITEC has an emphasis on the northern part of New Zealand, particularly the lichens of the Kermadec Islands, Northland, Kaipara (Mataia), Waitakere Ranges, urban Auckland, Auckland Regional Parks, Hauraki Gulf Islands (notable collections from Rangitoto, Motukaikoura and Tiritirimatangi), Waikato and Chatham Islands
