Australian National Herbarium Images - 65109

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.

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

澳大利亚国家标本馆馆藏约100万份浸渍保藏植物标本，是澳大利亚三大顶级植物标本馆藏机构之一。其馆藏管理、标本采集与研究项目均以全国层面为核心定位，这使其在澳大利亚各标本馆中独具特色。

澳大利亚国家标本馆由联邦政府管理的多家标本馆历经多年合并发展而来，其中包括数家澳大利亚联邦科学与工业研究组织（Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organisation，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。此前以"澳洲标本馆（Herbarium Australiense）"为名的CSIRO核心馆藏，于1984年更名为"澳大利亚国家标本馆"。目前，澳大利亚国家标本馆是澳大利亚国家生物多样性研究中心的下设项目，同时也是澳大利亚虚拟标本馆的共建成员。

主馆藏的标本由澳大利亚联邦气候变化、能源、环境与水利部联合采集与管理；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。

数据集溯源：本数据集为澳大利亚国家标本馆馆藏影像系列之一，影像采集源于两项工作：一是对全馆标本进行系统性数字化的项目，二是对实体标本馆藏的持续性影像采集。本次影像分组仅依据拍摄时间周期进行随机划分，并非某一分类群下所有馆藏标本的完整影像清单。

因此，本数据集未必涵盖某一分类群下的全部影像。我们推荐用户通过科学域下的NRCA标本影像检索系统（National Research Collections Australia），跨所有影像数据集检索以获取某一特定分类群的全部标本影像。
