University of Hargeisa Herbarium (University of Hargeisa-HARG)
The University of Hargeisa initiated development of a herbarium in April 2015. Later that year it was decided to develop a Natural History Museum of which the herbarium will be a part. The Museum will focus on plants, animals, and fungi of Somaliland. At present, almost all its specimens are of vascular plants but there are a few image-based animal records in the museum. These can be found at http://openherbarium.org/zoo/portal/index.php.
