Australian National Herbarium Images - 63838

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标本馆（Australian National Herbarium）所藏标本的图像合集。

澳大利亚国家标本馆馆藏约100万份压制植物标本，是澳大利亚三大植物标本馆藏机构之一。其在澳大利亚各标本馆中独具特色，馆藏、采集与研究项目均以国家层面为核心导向。

澳大利亚国家标本馆由联邦政府多年来整合多家馆藏机构发展而来，其中包括数家澳大利亚联邦科学与工业研究组织（CSIRO）标本馆、林业研究所桉类标本馆藏、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。澳大利亚联邦科学与工业研究组织的核心馆藏此前名为‘Herbarium Australiense’，于1984年更名为‘澳大利亚国家标本馆’。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标本馆的共建成员之一。

主馆藏标本由澳大利亚联邦政府气候、能源、环境与水资源部联合采集并管理；而澳大利亚热带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。

数据集谱系说明：本数据集为澳大利亚国家标本馆馆藏图像系列之一。这批图像源于对全馆标本进行数字化的系统性项目，或是对实体标本的持续成像工作；本图像组仅按拍摄时间进行随机划分，并非某一分类单元下所有馆藏标本的完整图像集合。

因此，本数据集未必涵盖某一分类单元的全部图像。我们建议通过科研领域下的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所有相关图像。
