Genera Allium and Caloscordum in herbarium collections (NS, NSK) of the Central Siberian Botanical Garden have 6224 sheets, most of them were examined by N. Friesen Digitization of herbarium specimens was initially undertaken for type specimens with a customized HerbScan unit, which consisted of a flatbed scanner (Epson Expression 10000XL) modified for inverted use. Images and metadata for 22 Allium type specimens preserved at the NSK are currently available on the Virtual Herbaria web site at the University of Vienna, Austria (http://herbarium.univie.ac.at/database) and 12 of them in JSTOR (https://plants.jstor.org).
