"All of the nomenclatural, bibliographic, and specimen data accumulated in
MBG’s electronic databases during the past 25 years are publicly available
here. This system has over one million scientific names and 3.5 million specimen records."
(Description from website.) Searchable by scientific or common name, the database includes brief
descriptions, images and
references (with some links to full text in
Botanicus), and
specimen and
distribution lists that are available in Google
Maps and
Earth. Quite a nice resource for anyone interested in botany.
