  • The Plant Pathology Herbarium and Insect Collection is a Queensland Government scientific collection based in Queensland, Australia. Based at the Department of Agriculture and Fisheries, the collection holds specimens of known fungal pathogens of plants grown in Queensland, as well as insect pests that occur in the state. In 1966 the herbarium was given the abbreviation BRIP. This abbreviation has official status in that it was the first listed in Index Herbarium. The abbreviation is not an acronym where each letter represents a word, but rather derived from the words 'Brisbane' and 'Pathology'. Supporting the Federal Biosecurity Act 2015, the Federal Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999, the state's Biosecurity Act 2014, and the Queensland Biosecurity Strategy 2018-2023, the collection enhances Queensland's biosecurity through the early detection and reliable and accurate identification of new and emerging plant diseases and pests. The Plant Pathology Herbarium contains: * more than 110,000 specimens representing almost 2,000 fungal species * a Culture Collection of 22,000 fungal cultures and 1,000 bacterial cultures. The Insect Collection has approximately: * 1.5 million pinned insect specimens * 52,000 slide-mounted specimens. (en)
