Brief description

This collection is a set of images of specimens held at the Australian Tropical Herbarium. The CNS collection is comprised of an estimated 180,000 specimens that are pressed, dried and mounted on herbarium sheets, and an estimated 18,000 specimens preserved in 70% ethanol.

CNS is an amalgamation of the (QRS) The Australian National Herbarium – Atherton collection, and the Queensland Herbarium – Mareeba collection (MBA).

The Australian Tropical Herbarium is a contributor to Australia's Virtual Herbarium.

Specimens from the Australian Tropical Herbarium have been collected and managed as a joint venture with James Cook University and the Queensland Government.
Lineage: \t
This dataset is one of a series that comprises images from the Australian Tropical 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 Australian Tropical Herbarium specimen image search under Scientific Domains which can be used to search across the image datasets to find all images from a specific taxon.
