The 'Cucurbitaceae of the N.C.W. Beadle Herbarium' collection aims to contribute to the discovery, description and analysis of this important cosmopolitan family of eudicots across the world, with special focus on Australian Cucurbitaceae through collection, exchange, curation and study of high quality herbarium specimens and associated activities and collections based at the N.C.W. Beadle Herbarium and with worldwide collaborators. A particular local effort has been on Cucumis and Sicyos. The N.C.W. Beadle Herbarium holds 243 specimens of Cucurbitaceae of which 231 were collected in Australia. The collection includes 38 species of Cucurbitaceae, and 29 genera. Specimens have been collected from all Australian states and territories except Tasmania and the Australian Capital Territory. Specimens from outside Australia have been collected in China, Fiji, Mexico, the United Kingdom, and the United States of America. The specimen sheet collection of the N.C.W. Beadle Herbarium is databased and available to registered users for online data entry and data query. Records include most standard herbarium label fields (see http://www.une.edu.au/herbarium/collecting.php) as used across Australia (e.g. http://www.anbg.gov.au/cpbr/herbarium/collecting/field-note-book.html) including name, collector(s), locality and habitat.
