Peter investigates the taxonomy of Diplazium tomentosum. | |
//console | |
He starts with one of the types from the Leiden herbarium (http://plants.jstor.org/specimen/l0051073): | |
[source,cypher] | |
---- | |
CREATE (s:Specimen{id:"L0051073" | |
,jstorUrl:'http://plants.jstor.org/specimen/l0051073' | |

,(s)-[:TYPE_OF]->(n) | |
RETURN s, n | |
---- | |
Now he adds details of another type specimen from Berlin: http://plants.jstor.org/specimen/b%2020%200051655 | |
[source,cypher] | |
---- | |
MATCH (n:Name{ipniid: '17089100-1'}) | |
CREATE (s:Specimen{id:'B-20-0051655',heldIn:'B'}) | |
, (s)-[:TYPE_OF]->(n) | |
RETURN s, n | |
---- | |
He next adds in specimens which have been verified to Diplazium tomentosum, such as this one (http://plants.jstor.org/specimen/gh00022916) from the GH herbarium: | |

RETURN s, n1, n2 | |

He finds a duplicate of this specimen at the Michigan herbarium (http://plants.jstor.org/specimen/mich1190057) and adds this too: | |

, (s)-[:ISOTYPE_OF]->(n2) | |
RETURN s, n1, n2 | |

He looks at some material from Brussels (http://plants.jstor.org/specimen/br0000006990008) | |
[source,cypher] | |

Next stop - Sweden, where Peter finds a couple of specimens of interest, one from Taiwan: | |

And finally one from Sumatra: | |

Peter also has some unidentified specimens, from BM and L: | |
BM AC.Jermy 7493 | |
BM AC.Jermy 7471 | |
BM AHG.Alston 16550 | |
BM,L AHG.Alston 16524 | |

L E.Hennipman 6040 | |
L GJ de Joncheere 1345 | |
L GJ de Joncheere 1384 | |
L GJ de Joncheere 1059 | |
He adds these to his "mind map": | |

Armed with this data, Peter wants to: | |
1) To establish links establishing a “typeof” relation between specimen, relevant publication and the relevant IPNI-reference for all type specimens *Done* | |
1a) To annotate the link for B 20 0051655 to say that I at this moment do not believe that it is in fact a type specimen. *Done* | |

3) To establish links between all type specimens except S-P-10962 to state that they are conspecific with the Blume type | |
4) To establish links establishing conspecificity between all BM-specimens listed for Sulawesi. *Done*: | |
