This site offers a large selection of pictures of Natural History objects, mostly British in origin. The images are presented to illustrate biodiversity and as an aid to identification. While pictures alone are generally NOT sufficient for identification, by showing different stages, states and views of the organisms more information can be offered than is available in field-guides. How to find your way around: BioImages is arranged in the normal biological classification (or at least my interpretation of it.) This is a hierarchical system with species grouped in genera, genera in families, families in orders and so on up to kingdoms and superkingdoms. 'Living Things' takes you to the top of the classification tree. If you just want to browse, Shortcuts takes you to a list of links to groups of organisms. You can then go directly to the group your are interested in. Then follow the links down to the species you want to see. On the left of each page in the classification hierarchy is a column of links to take you back up the hierarchy. Using these and the subtaxon links in the body of the page you can navigate sideways. This is a large site containing (Mar 06) 53,000 images depicting 4,600 species. The images include habitat shots, close-ups, macro shots and microscopy. Enjoy! ... [Information of the supplier]
The BioModels Database is a new effort to develop a data resource that will allow biologists to store, search and retrieve published mathematical models of biological interests. The models in the BioModels Database are annotated and linked to relevant data resources, such as publications, databases of compounds and pathways, controlled vocabularies, etc. ...

You can find images via browsing or via searching. ... [Editorial staff vifabio]
The core of the Botanical Society of America's Online Image Collection is the BSA Slide Collection, containing educational images for instructional use. Currently, there are 14 collections of images in the Slide Collection: Plant Geography, Plant Morphology, Phloem Development, Xylem Development, Floral Ontogeny, Lichens, Economic Botany, Carnivorous Plants, Organography, Pollen, Paleobotany, Plant Defense Mechanisms, Plant Anatomy, and Cellular Communication Channels. Further collections are integrated, being contributions from BSA members. ... [Information of the supplier, modified]
The Type Specimen Register of the United States National Herbarium was begun in 1966 and contains images and data for more than 90,000 type specimens of algae, lichens, bryophytes, ferns, gymnosperms and angiosperms. Yet to be imaged are the lichens, bryophytes and algae, as well as any type that has been on loan since before the start of the project. Types that have been imaged are indicated with a bold letter 'I' at the end of the record. The 'Guidelines and Resources' section describes some of our working methods and some issues with special collections. Types in the U.S. National Herbarium are filed under the basionym and all queries search only the basionym fields. Over time we have added the current name to some records as specimens are annotated, and this name is also displayed. Two search options are available. The 'quick search' leads directly to a single name. The 'full search' allows the user to select search fields, sort order, and output format. ... [Information of the supplier]
‘Botany in Pictures’ has set itself the aim of documenting the entire flora of Austria and the adjoining regions in pictures. In the meantime, our digital picture archive has grown to more than 30000 photos whereby we have been able to enlarge our own picture holding with numerous entries from other photo-botanists who have generously made their photos available to us. Thus, we can quickly expand ‘Botany in Pictures’ and continually show new pictures on the internet. Up to now, 1800 species have been documented in ‘Botany in Pictures’, with more than 2700 pictures. Many other pictures can be made available by request. ... [Information of the supplier, translated]
The Virtual Herbarium is a huge advancement in herbarium use and design coupling the collection of physical specimens directly with the WWW and incorporating complete specimen data integrated with multiple resources for information generation and retrieval. Fairchild Tropical Botanic Garden has the first truly virtual herbarium. We already have nearly 60,000 specimens online, including nearly 3,700 palms. NewTaxonomy is now derived from work of the Angiosperm Phylogeny Group. The Dan Austin Convolvulaceae Collection is now available for simple searches. Multiple Herbaria can be searched at once. Rather than just a simple text database of specimens, or photos of a few particular specimens, an integral part of our design philosophy is to make a high resolution photograph of every specimen in the herbarium available to the world. Our virtual herbarium includes not only specimens from our physical herbarium, but also specimens from other herbaria. The entire Herbarium of the National Trust for the Cayman Islands (CAYM) is available here. In addition to the specimens themselves (each has a high resolution photo of the specimen, a 300dpi scan of the label, and the associated searchable text database containing all of the label information in raw form as well as several interpreted fields) we also have several other resources such as extensive species lists, interactive keys, and thousands of photos of living plants in various databases and indices. ...
