The Taquari Valley's Herbarium (TVH) belongs to the Universitary Centre UNIVATES's Natural Science Museum. It has over 4000 specimens which has been digitally organized following the “Angiosperm Phylogeny Group III” system. It doesn't have any type specie sample neither any extra colection. The collected species are predominantely from the forest composition in which the TVH is located,
the Atlantic Forest. Although it also has a significantly number of species provided from the Rio Grande do Sul fields, mainly from the Pampa Biome. Among the botanic families registred at the TVH, the Orchidacea is the most representative of all due to a research that has been done with this family in the Taquari River Watershed. Despite the low samples number, the Herbarium has important regional botanic collection and it also has, among other aims, the continuos ampliation and the full computerization of records and herbarium specimens scanning threatened, endemic species and region characteristics of the Herbarium is inserted.
