The UH Insect Museum has a collection of over 250,000 specimens representing the insect biodiversity of Hawaii and other Pacific islands. It originated in 1908 as a teaching collection and is now a scientific research institution focused on insect systematics, evolution, and conservation. The museum is in the process of digitizing its entire collection, including high-resolution imaging of all specimens and transcription of label data, to improve accessibility and allow for crowdsourcing of data transcription. This project aims to document and preserve Hawaii's native and introduced arthropod species, support ongoing research, and serve as an educational resource.
