Available Resources

Currently, Resources are set up in two modules: Taxonomy and Catalogue.

In Taxonomy, you have the option to automatically run a search for a scientific name in IPNI or Tropicos.

Tools->Resources->Search IPNI
Tools->Resources->Search Tropicos

In Catalogue, you can load the current Specimen record in the Virtual Herbarium.

Tools->Resources->View specimen in Virtual Herbarium.

If you have suggestions for other Resources, please contact Melissa.
