## Description

**Brand Description: InvertEBase**

InvertEBase is a pioneering digital resource established in 2014, supported by the U.S. National Science Foundation (NSF) to enhance biodiversity research. This initiative originated as part of the Thematic Collection Network (TCN) and focuses on the digitization of specimen records from various arthropod and mollusk collections across six prominent U.S. museums, including the Field Museum of Natural History and the University of Michigan Museum of Zoology. 

The InvertEBase portal facilitates access to valuable data from these collections and has expanded significantly by integrating marine biodiversity information through collaborations with projects like Documenting Marine Biodiversity (DigIn) and Mobilizing Marine Mollusks (ESB). Additionally, InvertEBase emphasizes developing taxonomic standards in partnership with the World Register of Marine Species (WoRMS). This dynamic platform fosters the exploration and documentation of invertebrate diversity, ultimately contributing to a greater understanding of marine ecosystems and the intricate relationships within them.
