CSIRO Marine Invertebrates Image Collection (MIIC)

The CSIRO Marine Invertebrates Image Collection (MIIC) is a catalogue of geo-referenced images of invertebrates from surveys around Australia. Identifications have been done at CSIRO on the survey vessels or post voyage or the specimens have been passed to various Australian museums for identification. Images identifications use the Codes for Australian Aquatic Biota (CAAB) database and where possible CAAB records are cross linked to the World Register of Marine Species. Each specimen has a record identifier labelled CSIRO Specimen Reference. As at January 2020, there are 4900 images linked to 1565 taxa with the deepset sample from 4890 m. Many of the images have revised identifications. A significant addition is specimens from the RV Investigator research voyage in2017v03, titled "Sampling the abyss: latitudinal biodiversity patterns along the base of Australia's eastern continental margin." See https://www.marine.csiro.au/data/trawler/surveydetails.cfm?survey=IN2017_V03 for survey details.

澳大利亚联邦科学与工业研究组织（CSIRO）海洋无脊椎动物图像馆藏（MIIC）是一份收录澳大利亚周边海域调查获取的带地理坐标的无脊椎动物图像目录。物种鉴定工作由CSIRO在调查船上或航次结束后完成，部分标本则移交至澳大利亚多家博物馆进行鉴定。本馆藏的图像鉴定参考《澳大利亚水生生物编码》（Codes for Australian Aquatic Biota，简称CAAB）数据库，并尽可能将CAAB记录与世界海洋物种登记册（World Register of Marine Species）进行交叉关联。每份标本均配有标注为CSIRO Specimen Reference的记录标识符。截至2020年1月，该馆藏包含4900张图像，关联1565个分类单元，样本采集的最大水深达4890米。多数图像已完成物种鉴定修订。馆藏的重要新增标本来自2017年“探险家号”（RV Investigator）研究航次IN2017_V03，该航次主题为“深渊采样：澳大利亚东部大陆坡基部的纬度生物多样性格局”。航次详情请见：https://www.marine.csiro.au/data/trawler/surveydetails.cfm?survey=IN2017_V03。若该数据集被应用于任何成果产出，请按以下方式致谢：本研究对使用CSIRO海洋国家设施（https://ror.org/01mae9353）开展研究工作表示感谢。
