herbaria

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'2 etc found?' is the definition.
I know nothing about this answer so I cannot tell whether it can be defined by this definition.

'song she sang about bishop' is the wordplay.
I cannot really understand how this works, but
'song' could be 'aria' (aria is a kind of song) and 'aria' is found within the answer.
'she' could be 'her' (I've seen this in other clues) and 'her' is found within the answer.
'bishop' could be 'b' (chess abbreviation) and 'b' is found within the answer.
No letters remain.
This explanation may well be incorrect...

'where' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for herbaria that I've seen before include "Basil may be in these rooms" , "Collections of dried plants" , "set of plant collections" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
