AIMS - Bioresources Library (OBIS Australia)

Collection of marine organisms for bioactivity screening, focused in the shallow waters off the coastlines of Queensland and Western Australia, beginning in 1987 and continuing to the present. Small collections have been made in all other Australian States, New Zealand, Papua New Guinea, Thailand, Philippines and Antarctica waters. Collection procedures are designed to maximise taxonomic/chemical diversity ie this is not a biodiversity survey. Additional information available will generally include images, abundance and micro environmental variables.
