Australian National Herbarium Images - 64564

This collection is a set of images of specimens held at the Australian National Herbarium.The 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.The 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.Specimens 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.Lineage: 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.As 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.

本数据集为收藏于澳大利亚国家植物标本馆（Australian National Herbarium）的馆藏标本影像集。

澳大利亚国家植物标本馆馆藏约100万份保藏植物标本，是澳大利亚三大植物标本馆藏机构之一。该馆在澳大利亚标本馆体系中独具特色，其馆藏建设、标本采集与研究项目均以国家层面为核心定位。

澳大利亚国家植物标本馆由联邦政府多年来整合多家标本馆馆藏发展而来，涵盖澳大利亚联邦科学与工业研究组织（CSIRO）旗下多家标本馆、林业研究所桉树种质馆藏、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。此前以"Herbarium Australiense"为名的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。

主馆藏标本由澳大利亚联邦政府气候变迁、能源、环境与水利部联合采集并管理；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标本影像系列之一。这批影像源于对全馆标本开展的系统性数字化项目，或是对实体馆藏标本的持续影像拍摄工作；该影像组的划分仅以拍摄时间周期为依据，并非对应某一分类群（taxon）下全部馆藏标本的完整影像列表。

有鉴于此，本数据集可能未涵盖某一特定分类群的全部影像资料，建议通过科学域下的NRCA标本影像检索工具进行跨影像数据集检索，以获取某一特定分类群的全部影像资料。
