Are you a Victorian natural history society who’d love to digitise the back issues of your in-house publication/s to ensure your biodiversity heritage doesn’t fall into obscurity? That’s what we do at @bhl_au (at no cost to you). More info👇 (DM me if you have questions).

Delighted to announce that the past 30 years (1000+ articles) of the Edinburgh Journal of Botany #EJBotany @TheBotanics @RBGE_Science @EdinDiamond are now freely available #openaccess at: journals.rbge.org.uk/ejb/index #taxonomy #conservation #biodiversity #plants
Stories from the Biomes: Data Capture - go.shr.lc/3agxFTX @TheBotanics Read this blog about why 'data capture' is important in an age where 40% of the world's plants are faced with extinction. @TheBotanics #science #horticulture #conservation
After water ingress in @TheBotanics #Archives last July our store had to be emptied to allow the room to be refitted. All is well now and the boxes are returning one batch at a time to allow for a survey. My mini-Isaac Bayley Balfour is supervising... #Ikey100
I'm surveying #Archives collections @TheBotanics today. Maybe it shouldn't be a surprise to spot pressed flowers in amongst the papers, but I love it when it happens- this is Primula conica from Yunnan, China in a letter from Heinrich Handel-Mazzetti to William Wright Smith, 1923
JOB: We're looking to appoint four digitisation officers to image and transcribe label data from Herbarium and Fungarium specimens as part of our exciting project to digitise our collections. 👉ow.ly/eTNN50HLAu4
It was such a privilege to bring #bioinformatics to Scottish schools, read all about it in @PLOSCompBiol. Kudos to @4273pi and @steviebain_ journals.plos.org/ploscompbiol/a…
New to science today, Begonia bhutanensis, which arrived as a mystery @TheBotanics in 1985. One of the many gems and rarities in our living collection #RBGEhort bit.ly/3yeMUom

Why do I like lichens? For the stories they tell! This run-of-the-mill branch has some ordinary lichens doing fascinating things. A little lunchtime thread:
One of my favourite things about my Thursday #herbarium curation days are the random bits of #BotanicalArt you find tucked between the specimens 😍
Hooray! It’s #UKFungusDay 🎉 Who isn’t in awe of #fungi - they are so diverse, incredible & completely fascinating! To celebrate here’s a little collection of felted fungi, that I have made in the past from wool fibres! 🍄
