Abstract
A dataset for North American specimens in the holdings of the Oregon State Arthropod Collection is presented. Details about the metadata an some basic summary of the contents are presented. The dataset itself, in the form of a text file (csv formatting) is provided in the supplemental file materials.
Highlights
These records were generated using funds from the LepNet project (Seltmann et al, 2017) - a national effort to create digital records for North American Lepidoptera
Additional material from outside of North America is present, but was not digitized and catalogued at this time. Label data for these specimens can be accessed via online data portals that serve osac IPT data or by direct download via the archived datasets stored in the supplemental files of this paper
The vast majority of the holdings belong to the family Limacodidae, and a single species in particular: Tortricidia testacea Packard, 1864 which is common in the Pacific Northwest
Summary
These records were generated using funds from the LepNet project (Seltmann et al, 2017) - a national effort to create digital records for North American Lepidoptera. The dataset published contains the label data for all North American specimens of Zygaenidae, Limacodidae, Dalceridae and Megalopygidae residing at the Oregon State Arthropod Collection as of March 2019. A beta version of these data records will be made available on the OSAC server (http://osac.oregonstate.edu/IPT) at the time of this publication. The beta version will be replaced in the near future with an official release (version 1.0), which will be archived as a supplemental file to this paper
