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 Australian Tropical Herbarium specimen image search under Scientific Domains which can be used to search across the image datasets to find all images from a specific taxon.
