Herbarium 1 Botany Department Herbarium The Herbarium, a unit of Botany department, has a collection of specimens comprising of Angiosperms, Gymnosperms, Pteridophytes and other lower plants. Taxonomic coverage is broad although majority of the specimens are Angiosperms. Angiosperm specimens include collections from all over Kerala and nearby states. It includes almost all families starting with Rananculaceae and ending in Poaceae. The herbarium is housed in specially designed wooden storage cases in the Museum. It provides support for teaching and research in systematic botany and helps the students in plant identification.
Museum 2 1) Zoology Museum
Zoology Dept. has a well equipped Natural History Museum
2) Botany Museum
The department museum displays a variety of specimens including Algae, Fungi, Gymnosperms, Pteridophytes, Bryophytes, Lichens etc. preserved in F.A.A. The museum is rich in specimens showing stem, root and leaf modifications, fruits, seeds, palaeobotanical collections and economically useful plant products etc. and continues to be enlarged through faculty and students. Most of the models exhibited highlight morphological details. Museum serves as an aid to teach Botany and attract students from other disciplines.
Botanical Garden 1 A Botanical garden is a well-tended area displaying a wide range of plants labeled with their botanical names. In principle their role is to maintain documented collections of living plants for the purposes of scientific research, conservation, display and education. The Dept. is maintaining a well set Botanical garden. It has a good collection of medicinal plants. The students of the Dept. are maintaining the garden. It helps the students to aware different plant species.
