  <Summary>
    <Abstract> 
          STUDY NOTES: Repository of paleobotanical and micropaleontological fossils. The Collection holdings comprise approximately 3,800 samples with associated palynological preparations (ca. 50,000 microscope slides), 8,000 macrofossil specimens, and comparative modern plant material.  The approximate number of type and figured specimens in the Collection numbers over 1,000.  This conservative estimate does not take into account that an individual sample or slide may contain more than one fossil of interest.
