Digitising the NHMさんのイラストまとめ

ALICE our Angled Label Image Capture and Extraction equipment is a multi camera set up and software pipeline that allows up to 1000 specimens to be imaged per day and is unlocking @NHM_London insect collections at an unprecedented rate. Preprint: https://t.co/WDR9JuhFas

Our favourite @RoyalMail stamp is of Sir Joseph Banks and Passiflora aurantia. The Passiflora auranti type specimen is available on the #DataPortal #OpenAccess https://t.co/3kRihbWP2K

Some of the team are taking part in the International Conference of Phthiraptera this week. Are you at #ICP6brno today? Access @NHM_London louse data online https://t.co/yV2rL3aRRQ @vsmithuk

We have specimens from Bank's insect collection; pinned in glass topped drawers. This collection was studied by Johan Fabricus who named ~10,000 species of animal and established the basis for modern insect classification. @royalsociety @NHM_London https://t.co/VZpEFhR6kx

Only one Austrogoniodes louse species lives on a bird other than a penguin - A.metoecus on the musk duck. Researchers thought this to be related to the blue penguin louse (A.waterstoni) due to close geographical distribution in Southern Australia. #PenguinAwarenessDay

Who saw #BigCats last night? This @NHM_Flea is from a domestic cat (Felis catus) available on the #DataPortal #DigitalMuseum

Scientist Dr Suzanne Williams thinks sequencing in #25genomes may uncover why the Baltic Clam has hidden colour https://t.co/CrFMQjZo47

Dr Nathan Kenny is championing the Naval Shipworm (Teredo navalis) for #25genomes find out more: https://t.co/7IE9ZNucsm

The Naval Shipworm eats only wood. Sequencing the genome could give scientists insight into how to make “biofuels” efficiently #25genomes
