Entomological types - checking previous import of images #256

Open Sosannah opened 9 months ago

Sosannah commented 9 months ago

Prompted by the recent upload, I checked some old file folders that I know contain various photos of our entomological types from a project that was finished some years ago. As far as I can see, we have a large number -- perhaps even in the hundreds -- of images that are not in our collection portal and I would be anxious that they never were imported into Specify. Images were never thoroughly harvested as they were scattered idiosyncratically in various folders, but most should be found in those given below -- which should be accessible for both of you:

N:\SCI-SNM-Biosystematics\FabriciusMantids N:\SCI-SNM-Biosystematics\Chalcis annulata N:\SCI-SNM-Biosystematics\Collections\Coleoptera N:\SCI-SNM-Biosystematics\Collections\Demaptera N:\SCI-SNM-Biosystematics\Collections\Diptera_types_all N:\SCI-SNM-Biosystematics\Collections\Lepidoptera_Typer N:\SCI-SNM-Biosystematics\Collections\Beetle-types-photos N:\SCI-SNM-Biosystematics\Collections\Collections\Fabricius´Butterflies N:\SCI-SNM-Biosystematics\Administration\DKB\Images for Papis\Heteroptera type-fotos N:\SCI-SNM-Biosystematics\Administration\DKB\Images for Papis\xiaoyan N:\SCI-SNM-ZMDISK\3.Afdeling\JBS digi_regi\Lars

Worth checking -- or at least sampling a few of them to see if they have been incorporated. Fabrician beetles have now been moved to Kiel in Germany, but if we have photos these should be shared with our colleagues in Kiel.

N:\SCI-SNM-Biosystematics\FabriciusMantids - already imported FabriciusMantids.csv

N:\SCI-SNM-Biosystematics\Chalcis annulata - already imported N:\SCI-SNM-Biosystematics\Collections\Coleoptera - already imported Coleoptera type images_digitization.csv

N:\SCI-SNM-Biosystematics\Collections\Demaptera - alt.cat name differs on label and in Specify, no images yet

Waiting for review: N:\SCI-SNM-Biosystematics\Collections\Diptera_types_all N:\SCI-SNM-Biosystematics\Collections\Lepidoptera_Typer N:\SCI-SNM-Biosystematics\Collections\Beetle-types-photos N:\SCI-SNM-Biosystematics\Collections\Collections\Fabricius´Butterflies N:\SCI-SNM-Biosystematics\Administration\DKB\Images for Papis\Heteroptera type-fotos N:\SCI-SNM-Biosystematics\Administration\DKB\Images for Papis\xiaoyan N:\SCI-SNM-ZMDISK\3.Afdeling\JBS digi_regi\Lars
