This video demonstrates two recently developed tools available within Symbiota Light. First, the occurrence relationship module where data editors can define relationships between occurrences and species using a structured set of relationships defined by the portal manager. Second, the record cloning tool is demonstrated which is useful to create records of subsamples (e.g. DNA extracts, dissec...

This video continues the identification started in th-cam.com/video/jfmOOnruosg/w-d-xo.html and takes the unknown specimen from the level of tribe down to species. This video was created with the National Ecological Observatory Network in mind, though these resources are pertinent to anyone identifying ground beetles from North America or as an example of using technical keys for insect identif...

This video talks about available identification resources and how they can be used together to identify an unknown specimen. An example is used and the specimen is keyed to the level of tribe in this video, it is continued in th-cam.com/video/qOEjR6XuWlk/w-d-xo.html This video was created with the National Ecological Observatory Network in mind, though these resources are pertinent to anyone id...

This video shows several basic examples of repairing a damaged insect specimen.

This video demonstrates the basics of pinning and pointing an insect specimen for a research collection. This video was created for the NEON (National Ecological Observatory Network) Carabid Skills Clinic.
