On the second day of the seaweed specimen workshop for elementary school children, July 26, participants placed labels on the sheets and created their own herbarium specimens of 30 species, which were compiled into exsiccatae. The exsiccatae included field guide pages for each species, specially prepared by us for the workshop.
This workshop was supported as part of the outreach programs under the Grant-in-Aid for Scientific Research from the Japan Society for the Promotion of Science (JSPS).
