And this is a picture how a converged Digital Extended Specimen would look like, based on my interpretation of the earlier comments in this consultation. It would look like a digital specimen with the extensions worked out in ES, with data not only linked to but also derived from specimen in the ‘secondary’ part, and with a different section for specimen images. All the component in the object can have their own PIDs to be linked to the DS PID. Taxonomic names and collection events would also need PIDs to be linked.
