Australian National Herbarium Images - 64577

This collection is a set of images of specimens held at the Australian National Herbarium.\n\nThe Australian National Herbarium, with approximately 1 million preserved plant specimens, is one of the three largest plant collections in Australia. It is unique among the Australian Herbaria in having a national focus for its collections, acquisition and research programs.\n\nThe Australian National Herbarium arose from the amalgamation over the years of several herbaria managed by the Commonwealth Government. These included several CSIRO herbaria, the Forest Research Institute Eucalypt Collection, the Forest Research Institute's Atherton Rainforest Collection, and the Australian National Botanic Gardens Herbarium. The CSIRO's core collection, previously known as 'Herbarium Australiense', was renamed 'Australian National Herbarium' in 1984. The Australian National Herbarium is a program of the Centre for Australian National Biodiversity Research and a contributor to Australia's Virtual Herbarium.\n\nSpecimens within the main collection have been collected and managed as a joint venture with the Australian Government's Department of Climate Change, Energy, the Environment and Water. Specimens from the Australian Tropical Herbarium have been collected and managed as a joint venture with James Cook University and the Queensland Government.\nLineage: This dataset is one of a series holding images from the Australian National Herbarium collection. These images were taken as part of a systematic project digitising the whole Herbarium collection or ongoing imaging of the physical specimen collection, and this grouping of images is arbitrary based on the time period the images were taken, it is not a comprehensive list of all the specimens available in a taxon.\n\nAs such, this dataset may not include all images from a particular taxon and we recommend the NRCA specimen image search under Scientific Domains which can be used to search across the image datasets to find all images from a specific taxon.

本数据集为澳大利亚国家植物标本馆（Australian National Herbarium）所藏标本的图像集合。

澳大利亚国家植物标本馆馆藏约100万份保藏植物标本，是澳大利亚三大规模最大的植物馆藏机构之一。该馆在澳大利亚各植物标本馆中独具特色，其馆藏建设、标本采集与研究项目均以国家层面为核心导向。

澳大利亚国家植物标本馆由联邦政府管理的多家标本馆历经多年合并而成，其中包括数家CSIRO标本馆、林业研究所桉属植物馆藏、林业研究所阿瑟顿雨林馆藏，以及澳大利亚国家植物园标本馆。此前名为"Herbarium Australiense"的CSIRO核心馆藏，于1984年正式更名为"澳大利亚国家植物标本馆"。该馆隶属于澳大利亚国家生物多样性研究中心，同时也是澳大利亚虚拟植物标本馆的共建参与方。

主馆藏中的标本由澳大利亚政府气候变革、能源、环境与水资源部联合采集并管理；而澳大利亚热带植物标本馆的馆藏标本，则由詹姆斯·库克大学与昆士兰州政府联合采集与管理。

数据集溯源：本数据集为澳大利亚国家植物标本馆馆藏图像系列之一。这些图像源于两项工作：一是对全馆标本进行数字化的系统性项目，二是对实体标本馆藏的持续性拍摄。本图像组仅按照拍摄时间周期进行随机划分，并非某一分类群下所有可用标本的完整图像列表。

有鉴于此，本数据集未必涵盖某一分类群的全部图像。我们推荐通过科研领域下的NRCA标本图像检索工具，跨图像数据集搜索以获取特定分类群的所有相关图像。
