The Botany Dept. of the San Diego Natural History Museum has a collection of over 40,000 35mm slides of the plants of Baja California, some in their native habitat, and others cultivated.  A project to digitize these slides is underway, funded by the Longino family of Tucson Arizona. This web site includes the first draft version of the public presentation of these photographs. As of 30 June, 2008, 12,435 photographs are available at this site. The museum's herbarium includes 3804 voucher specimens from Baja California. A project to digitize the specimen sheets, funded by the Wallace Research Foundation, has been completed for the specimens in the SDNHM herbarium. Following that effort, Dr. Rebman and staff began a series of visits to other herbaria to find specimens from Baja not in the SDNHM collection. On 7 July 2007, 335 photographs of specimens from the Rancho Santa Ana (RSA) and Pomona College (POM) collections were added to the web site. On 14 November 2007, 404 photographs of specimens from the California Academy of Science which includes the Dudley Herbarium, and the Jepson and University Herbaria of UC Berkeley were added to the web site. One hundred and sixty seven additional from RSA and POM were added 18 April 2008. There are now 4113 specimen sheet views available on this site; 3211 are from the SDNHM collection.
