Research Goals
The fossil insect data are of great importance to understanding insect response to environmental change and patterns of biodiversity through time.
These fossils can aid in phylogenetic reconstruction, examinations of the evolution of morphological characteristics and in studies of overall patterns of diversification in deep time.

Project Goals
The Fossil Insect Collaborative will make available all the major collections of fossil insect specimens in the United States by creating electronic specimen records consisting of digital images and associated collection data.

iDigPaleo - Hub
iDigPaleo will be used to aggregate specimen data and low resolution images from collaborators and then to serve these data to the National Hub at iDigBio (www.idigbio.org) and the Paleontology Portal (www.paleoportal.org).

iDig Paleo - Hub
The model will be implemented for use with the open-source MySQL relational database system.
A novel feature of iDigPaleo will be the incorporation of social networking tools to enable users to interact directly with the project dataset for a wide variety of purposes.
