The importance of hybridization in speciation, especially in disturbed or novel habitats, has long been recognized (Stebbins, 1940, 1950; Anderson and Stebbins, 1954). Among ferns, thought to have fewer reproductive barriers to hybridization than angiosperms (Smith, 1972; Ranker and Sundue, 2015), over 1200 instances of inter- and intrageneric hybrids have been reported (Knobloch, 1996).

Abstract University herbaria play critical roles in biodiversity research and training and provide interdisciplinary academic environments that foster innovative uses of natural history collections. Universities have a responsibility to steward these important collections in perpetuity, in alignment with their academic missions and for the good of science and society.
