Survey Set, Lower Plants
View Larger Image
To show your students the diversity among major phyla, these sets follow the Five Kingdoms' organization of life and contain representatives of organisms considered plants under earlier taxonomy.
Each set contains authentic specimens in perfect condition, each housed in a 8-ounce jar filled with our special preservative. Each jar lid is labeled so you have an unobstructed view of the specimen. Use the jars for individual and group study, and to create an attractive display.
In addition, each set is accompanied by a teacher's guide and the Tree of Life Chart, and comes in a partitioned storage box. Additional teacher's guides and Tree Life Charts are also available separately.
Note: Substitutions may be made where appropriate, depending on availability of specimens.
