I have been admiringly browsing through the database, and I'm thrilled to be able to access all of the information now available to the public! I was, however, disappointed that the majority of entries lacked a photo of the specimens. Given the colossal number of specimens, I understand adding a photo of each specimen will probably take years. would the Field Museum be interested in allowing students studying related sciences to volunteer their time to assist in cataloging and photographing the specimens?

I work in the Texas A&M Univeristy Insect Collection and we have been undergoing the barcode databasing process for years. Such work will never end! We only boast about 3 million specimens, but even that many is an endless supply of captivating wonder.
@MUtley-rf8vg
@MUtley-rf8vg 8 жыл бұрын
+Andrew J. Graf _Only_ 3-million... Okay, so, just imagining 12-million specimens. Say it takes 15-minutes per specimen to database and you were working 40-hour work weeks to complete this task. That's 1,437 years. Futile task. Okay, say you hire a company of 100 full time employees to do the same job. It's still 15-years of filing and nothing but. Now just imagine the time, energy, and manpower that went into these collections in the first place. That's a lotta love.
@cipher1500
@cipher1500 8 жыл бұрын
Actually, depending on the specimen, databasing can take from less than a minute to a few minutes. Despite that, yes, it's a tedious task. The collection grows daily, so we "retro-actively" capture all new specimens into the databasing system while still going through the rest of the collection one part at a time to database them. This is all fueled by an army of undergraduate student workers. It's all worth it. In a span of 10 years or so, we have around a million of them databased. Another plus from doing this databasing is that you learn A LOT of geography.

Maybe you'll discover some new insect micro-nations like those global Argentine ant colonies.

Actually we get paid! The only downside to barcode databasing is when you somehow run out of unique barcodes. That's a real headache. I've been keeping the entire Formicidae collection up to date for them. Well we don't have overlays. The geography learning comes in when you are entering data from a specimen and you don't know the country or location off hand. Worst ones are the handwritten ones that aren't very legible, or when you have old cities that had different names in the past. Sends you off on a hunt for a specific spot on the face of the Earth.

@thebrainscoop
@thebrainscoop 8 жыл бұрын
+Joshie Two big things are important to keeping insects intact post-mortem: one, keeping them dry as to prevent mold from growing. Their exoskeletons protect their insides so as long as they're dry they won't decompose or otherwise 'rot'. Two, keeping other insects - pest insects, like dermestids - from eating them up is imperative. Mothballs keep those types of insects away. Insects are pinned to the side, as their internal anatomy is basically symmetrical. Pinning in the middle is more damaging to the internal anatomy than pinning slightly off-center, to the side.

I adore pinned insects in a frame. They are like gems to me. What stopped kids from pinning insects like we used to do in the olden days? We caught more bugs than, well I don't know. Butterflies were a big hit and the nicest displays were under bell glass, but those were expensive to do. There used to be a lot more farms in US than now (excellent farmland smoothed over and houses on it now, or just lie fallow or abandoned, the same produce we can grow is now imported from Mexico courtesy NAFTA). we see no butterflies anymore except the most common. WHERE ARE ALL THE BUGS? A town I used to live in, we kids would scoop tadpoles out of the gutter and raise them to froglets to be set free, but that city became all "21st Century" and paved over all of the places water collected for the frogs, now they are sitting there scratching their heads referring to scientists to find out the reason for the frogs declining populations! they had the audacity to blame it on "pesticide over usage" No, they destroyed their habitats.

Idk if you've ever watched Penny dreadful, but it's currently my favorite show😁. I was watching episode one and they said that the bugs in a box living on a skeleton were carrion Beetles and that they were cleaning the specimen and it bothered me because I knew they were Dubai roaches from watching the brain scoop, mixed with the fact that I keep Dubias as a food source for my geckos. It made me wonder if people commonly mix up Beetles and roaches. How closely related are they, anyways? 😂

And I just wanted to ask one more question. I started a butterfly collection nearly 2 years ago and I have over 50 specimens, which are all identified, labeled and spread. Do amateur insect collections have any scientific value? For example if I donate my collection to a museum will it be able to be used for research? (I realised I asked 2 question, not 1. :P)

+Dylan McKeithen Standard practice for beetles is to pin them on the right side. I'm not 100% sure why, but a couple of reasons I can think of are 1) the center of the beetle is often thicker and more difficult to get a pin through and 2) a pin through the center could damage identifying characteristics only found in the center, whereas there are two sides that are mirror images

Our selection process goes something like this - 1)Is it unique or otherwise extremely valuable scientifically? 2) Are the species of immediate concern because of ecological/medical/agricultural importance? 3) is there funding available? and then some minor attributes - 4) are they well-curated? This saves a lot of work in the digitization process. 5) Do we have experts on the group available for consultation? 6) Are they pretty, or otherwise popular with the public?

I'm a part of a similar databasing program at the Cleveland Museum of Natural History so if anyone has any questions I'd be happy to answer them!
