Australian National Herbarium Images - restricted - 66515

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.This collection of specimen images is restricted due to one of more of the following reasons:-- rare or threatened status; -- biosecurity implications;-- cultural sensitivity;-- specimen donation stipulations.Individuals or organisations with a legitimate research use of these images can request access to the images.The curation, databasing and digitisation of the ANH Orchidaceae floral dissection card collection was supported by funding from the Australian Orchid Foundation.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.

澳大利亚国家植物标本馆（Australian National Herbarium）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标本馆藏机构之一。其在澳大利亚各类标本馆中独具特色，馆藏建设、标本采集与科研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多年来多份由英联邦政府管理的标本馆合并而来，其中涵盖多份联邦科学与工业研究组织（Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organisation, CSIRO）标本馆、林业研究所桉属标本馆藏、林业研究所阿瑟顿雨林标本馆藏，以及澳大利亚国家植物园标本馆。该组织的核心馆藏此前曾以"Herbarium Australiense"为名，于1984年正式更名为"澳大利亚国家植物标本馆"。该馆是澳大利亚国家生物多样性研究中心（Centre for Australian National Biodiversity Research）的下设项目，同时也是澳大利亚虚拟标本馆（Australia's Virtual Herbarium）的共建参与方。

主馆藏标本由澳大利亚政府气候变革、能源、环境与水利部联合采集并管理；澳大利亚热带植物标本馆（Australian Tropical Herbarium）的标本则由詹姆斯·库克大学（James Cook University）与昆士兰州政府联合采集并管理。

本标本图像馆藏受限的原因包括以下一项或多项：
-- 物种处于稀有或受威胁状态；
-- 涉及生物安全风险；
-- 存在文化敏感性问题；
-- 受标本捐赠协议约束。
具备合法研究用途需求的个人或机构，可申请获取该图像资源。

数据集溯源：本数据集是澳大利亚国家植物标本馆馆藏图像系列之一。本批图像为全标本馆系统性数字化项目，或是实体标本馆藏持续影像化工作的一部分；本图像分组仅以拍摄时间周期划分，并非某一分类单元下全部馆藏标本的完整列表。

有鉴于此，本数据集未必涵盖某一分类单元的全部图像资源。我们建议通过科学领域下的NRCA标本图像检索工具进行跨数据集检索，以获取特定分类单元的全部图像资源。
