While we're on the subject of specimen boxes. In the UK we use flat boxes,
3 x 4 x 1/2 inch deep to store small, flat botanical specimens (bryophytes
and lichens). These fit nicely into a bryophyte packet, which can then be
mounted on a standard herbarium sheet. I have been unable to find a source
of these in North America. If anyone knows of one, I would be extremely
grateful.
