Figure 8 from: Mantle B, LaSalle J, Fisher N (2012) Whole-drawer imaging for digital management and curation of a large entomological collection. ZooKeys 209: 147-163. https://doi.org/10.3897/zookeys.209.3169
Figure 8 - Whole-drawer image of dragonfly specimens used for a pilot study investigating the error associated with direct and indirect measures of morphological characters, such as wing length.

Figure 7 - Ultra high-resolution image of Buforaniidae grasshoppers (Orthoptera) from the ANIC. Note that the specimens are arranged by species, and then by the State from which they were collected. In this example, Northern Territory specimens are pinned in the first and second columns, followed by Queensland specimens in columns three and four. The online version of this image is viewable at Morphbank-ALA.

Figure 4 - Whole-drawer image of unsorted Hemiptera specimens with identifications provided by a remotely located expert, Dr Murray Fletcher. This drawer was subsequently re-curated according to the identifications, with specimens accessioned into the appropriate locations within the ANIC Hemiptera collection. See Appendix 1 for full list of remote identifications.
