TheVirtual Herbarium is a huge advancement in herbarium use and design coupling the collection of physical specimens directly with the WWW and incorporating complete specimen data integrated with multiple resources for information generation and retrieval. . The entire Herbarium of the National Trust for the Cayman Islands (CAYM) is available here. In addition to the specimens themselves (each has a high resolution photo of the specimen, a 300-dpi scan of the label, and the associated searchable text database containing all of the label information in raw form as well as several interpreted fields) There are also several other resources such as extensive species lists,interactive keys, and thousands of photos of living plants in various databases and indices.
