Re: Guidance for collection of specimens?

Hi,

I was wondering whether anyone knew of a good resource to direct people towards regarding best practice for collecting specimens?  On The Wild Flower Society website I see they have a Code of Conduct developed by BSBI.  Is there a site that includes guidance for a whole range of taxon groups?

Thanks very much for any help!

Not sure if there is a resource for all taxonomic groups, but there is a "code of conduct for collecting insects and other invertebrates" @ http://www.amentsoc.org/publications/online/collecting-code.html
