The Australasian Virtual Herbarium (AVH) is an online resource[1] that allows access to plant specimen data held by various Australian and New Zealand herbaria. Of the 8 million and upwards specimens available (as of 1 May 2018) more than five million specimens have been databased.[1][2]
This resource is available to anyone with access to a computer, and is used by academics, students and anyone interested in research in botany in Australia or New Zealand, since each record tells all that is known about the specimen: where and when it was collected; by whom; its current identification; and information on habitat and associated species.[1] All records are able to be downloaded in their entirety. Trivial examples of use of these records may be found in the distribution maps for Tribonanthes violacea, Blancoa canescens and Haemodorum coccineum. Manyjournal articles have used this resource as primary data for analysis.[3],
