iberian odonata distribution: bos arthropod collection digitisation
DESCRIPTION
Here we describe (1) the digitisation workflow used in the BOS Arthropod Collection (Department of Biología de Organismos y Sistemas, University of Oviedo, Spain); (and 2) the dataset of Odonata biodiversity deposited here. The 16,604 specimens were mainly collected from the Iberian Peninsula (98.63% of the data records), especially the northern region, and comprising several holo and paratypes of Iberian subspecies. This workflow have been published in ZooKeys 306, please cite the print source if you use it: Torralba-Burrial A, Ocharan FJ (2013) Iberian Odonata distribution: data of the BOS Arthropod Collection (University of Oviedo, Spain).
