The algae collection of the Herbarium BCN contains more than 7,000 specimens. These samples correspond to marine macrophytes, basically phaeophytes, rhodophytes and chlorophytes, which come from all along the coastline of the Iberian Peninsula, but mostly from the Catalan-speaking territories (Països Catalans), the Basque Country and Galicia. In terms of taxa, there is a substantial representation of the genus Cystoseira.
