Abstract

:
While there are millions of reptile images available online, they are not well organized and not easily findable, accessible, interoperable, or reproducible (FAIR). More importantly, they are not standardized and thus hardly comparable. Here we present a reference database of more than 14,000 standardized images of 1045 reptile species (969 lizard and 76 snake species) that are based on preserved specimens in 20 different collections, including 533 type species of genera and type specimens of 72 species. All images were taken with standardized views, including dorsal and ventral body shots as well as dorsal, ventral, and lateral views of the heads and other body parts. Although only 11 out of the 20 collections are cross-referenced in VertNet, some others are indexed in GBIF, and this fraction will certainly grow in the near future. The utility of this and similar image collections will further grow with additional material and further cross-referencing, e.g., to DNA sequence databases or citizen science projects. The images are searchable and freely available on Morphobank (Project 5121) and on Figshare.

1. Introduction

Despite the critical importance of images in the biological sciences, there are relatively few image databases that provide structured, annotated, and standardized collections of images using FAIR guidelines, i.e., they are findable, accessible, interoperable, and reusable. For images related to biodiversity and taxonomy, two such databases are Morphobank [1] and Morphosource [2]. These repositories focus on collecting images and traits in a phylogenetic context (Morphobank) and on 3D images such as CT scans (Morphosource), respectively. Images are critical for taxonomy as they can show many more traits than can be realistically described in text. Equally important, while images do not replace physical specimens, they can be made easily available online and cannot be lost during war or fire (see [3] for examples), at least as long as they are stored on multiple servers.
There is no shortage of animal photos on the web and several attempts have been made to survey them in a more systematic way, including reptile photos [4,5]. However, given the dynamic nature of the internet, online images are constantly changing and may disappear at any time. Some databases, such as iNaturalist, have huge image collections counting in the millions, but their main purpose is to document observations in nature. Although iNaturalist is not a taxonomic project, it has recently started to add images of museum specimens. Many taxon-specific databases, such as the Reptile Database, focus on taxonomy and but not specifically on image collection. We believe that taxonomists need specialized databases that provide standardized images, e.g., in order to permit direct comparison of specimens in high resolution so that diagnostic features can be easily examined. While many natural history collections offer images on their websites, this is only true for a subset of collections or a subset of their specimens. Importantly, the distributed nature of having images spread over numerous websites makes those images hard to find and even harder to use [6].
The purpose of this project is to provide a starting point for a systematic collection of reptile images, taken from preserved specimens, that can be revisited in those collections, with the pertinent metadata such as localities and other information. We started by taking pictures of more than 1000 reptile species in 20 collections around the world, resulting in more than 14,000 images that have been tagged with metadata, so that they can be sorted by specific features, such as particular body parts, and cross-referenced with other databases, such as VertNet [7] or the Reptile Database. We are making this collection accessible through Morphobank, where each image can be traced back to a specific specimen based on its collection and catalogue number.

2. Methods and Materials

A total of 15,675 photographs (62.6 GB) encompassing 1045 reptile species were taken across 20 collections around the world (Table 1) using a Canon Eos 7d Mark II camera with a Canon 100 mm macro lens (although a few large specimens at ZMB were taken with a 50 mm macro lens). A total of 14,239 of these photos show specimens, while the remaining 1436 show labels, which may or may not contain additional information such as localities. The photos depict 1342 unique specimens, with the explicit intention to take standardized pictures from the same perspective, namely the dorsal and ventral sides of the whole body, plus close-ups of the head (dorsal, lateral, and ventral sides), as well as details of the trunk (lateral view) and the cloacal region. A ruler was included for scale. In some cases, close-ups of other body parts were taken too, depending on their taxonomic relevance (e.g., toe pads in geckos). Poorly preserved specimens, especially types, were photographed to document their state but more effort was put into better preserved specimens, which usually showed more traits in more detail.

Collections were selected primarily based on accessibility, that is, in an order that could be visited on a single trip (like on the lead author’s visits to Europe or Australia). The primary taxonomic goal of each visit was to cover as many lizard genera as possible, with the goal to document at least one species of each genus, ideally the type species. Most photos were taken in 2019 and 2020, except for RMCA and UF (2021).
Since many photos were similar and created some redundancy, we removed some of this redundancy using Duplicate Photo Cleaner version 7.5.0.12. [8] This removed photos that exhibited at least an 85% similarity threshold to one or more other photos.
Metadata was added to the photos using a custom-made tool built in Claris FileMaker Pro [9]. The view and visible body parts were marked for each image. Keywords for view included dorsal, ventral, left lateral, right lateral, and lateral, while keywords for body parts consisted of the whole body, head, trunk, forelimb, hindlimb, tail, hand, foot, and cloaca. After all the tagging was completed, the metadata was exported from FileMaker to Excel spreadsheets showing file name, body parts, and views for each image file.
The full-sized images and the metadata Excel sheets are available in Morphobank [1] under project number 5121 and in Figshare (see links in Data Availability Statement).

3. Results

We have taken more than 14,239 standardized photos representing 1045 species of reptiles and made them available in Morphobank. While only 81 of the 1342 specimens are primary types, images of other type specimen will be added as they become available.
Taxonomically, our initial goal was to obtain photos of all lizard genera, that is, at least one species of each genus (ideally the type species). While we have not reached that goal yet, our collection has photos of 490 lizard genera (out of 603), that is, 81% of all lizard genera. However, representing all genera is a moving target: since the turn of the century (2000), 122 new lizard genera have been described [10], including 16 genera in the years 2021 and 2022, not counting those from taxonomic vandalism [11]. Most of these were not covered by this project, given that our current set of photos were mostly taken from 2019 to 2020.
Overall, we collected photos of 53 families, 29 of which have all genera covered (Table 3). While most of these families are rather small, two of them have 10 or more genera, namely Anguidae and Phyllodactylidae. Of 41 families, or nearly half of all families, we have captured 80% or more of all genera.
Given that our primary focus was on lizard genera, we attempted to obtain photos of the type species of these genera. This was achieved for 530 genera, including 478 lizard genera and 52 snake genera (Supplementary Table S1).
The resulting 14,239 image files were renamed and marked with metadata so that they can be searched for features such as “head” or “ventral” sides.
As an example and case study, we present photos of 8 genera of the subfamily Lacertinae (currently identical with the tribus Lacertini), an Old World group containing 19 genera and 139 species of lizards to show the utility of such image collections for comparative studies (Figure 1 and Figure 2).

4. Discussion

This project aims to fill the need for a reference database of specimen photos that are highly standardized in terms of what they show and how they show it. The image collection presented here is also designed to be FAIR; that is, it is findable, accessible, interoperable, and reusable. The latter two criteria are fulfilled by their creative commons licenses and by their connection to other databases such as the Reptile Database (especially for names) and VertNet (for specimen information, including localities). The Reptile Database also provides and/or directly links to the original descriptions and other relevant literature so that access to the primary sources is provided. Overall, these photos can serve as a reference dataset for comparative morphology, species identification, or other purposes.

4.1. Morphological Features

Each of our photos shows dozens or hundreds of individual scales and their features (size, shape, relationships, pattern, surface features, etc.), hence we cautiously estimate that we have documented at least a million, but probably millions, of individual characters with our project. This database will become especially valuable when used in combination with other data sources such as the Reptile Database which now has descriptions of about 8000 species, mostly from the primary literature [13]. Most of these descriptions are of little use without images and many of the images in the primary literature are hard to find or behind paywalls (or there are no images, as in the majority of older descriptions). However, many historical descriptions have detailed descriptions of scalation features but no illustrations, and these will become available with our image database. For instance, some lacertid genera have a single or paired postnasal and this character is easy to recognize, even for non-experts (Figure 2). By contrast, some characters are relative, such as having “enlarged masseteric scales”; without at least two photos to compare the sizes of scales in different specimens it is practically impossible to know what “enlarged” means, given that many lacertids have more or less enlarged masseteric scales (Figure 2, see [14] for details).

4.2. Limitations

Obviously, this project is only a first step toward a complete database of reference images. Even if we had images of all 12,000 reptile species, it would still not reflect the diversity and variation within species, as geographic and individual variation needs to be represented by additional images. Similarly, even those specimens that are currently included often lack critical metadata, such as precise localities or biological data such as sex or age (the latter can be estimated from size information, but that is usually not included in collection catalogs).
Another concern is the notorious problem of taxonomic uncertainty: during the process of taking pictures, we found several mis-identified specimens which may have been simply mis-identified, but it is increasingly common that species names change because of splitting. That is, if a species becomes split into multiple species, a subset of specimens needs to be re-assigned to the new (split off) species, which rarely happens in collections. This problem can only be solved by taxonomists and collection managers who closely follow the literature (or online resources such as the Reptile Database) and re-label those specimens as needed. However, our online resource will help the community to re-examine specimens by comparing them to specimens in other collections and the literature, and thus correct such misidentifications.
A last important limitation is that the reference images described here do not retain the natural color of an animal. Hence, each preserved specimen should also be compared or linked to images of live animals, which may require a separate image database [5].

4.3. Linking Data and Databases

A critical component of this project was the linking of specimen data to both images and collection databases such as VertNet. However, numerous other links are needed and possible, e.g., links to observation data (iNaturalist, GBIF), conservation data (IUCN), or DNA sequence databases which increasingly reference specimen information. DNA sequences will become increasingly important once phenotypes can be linked to genome data.

4.4. Usage of Reference Images

The reference library has several possible uses. The first and most obvious is to use it in taxonomic studies for comparison and for the identification of species, for instance, if a user has to decide if a specimen belongs to species A or species B. This includes the use by amateurs, e.g., in iNaturalist where many photos do not show sufficient details for exact species identification. Second, reference images will allow researchers to investigate traits much more easily and systematically, especially when they are combined with ontologies of terms. For instance, lacertids such as the species shown in Figure 1 and Figure 2 have essentially all the same types of scales. As long as a user knows which characters to look for, all images with that character can be easily found, simply by searching for all images that show, for instance, the dorsal side of a head (which has prefrontal, frontal, parietal, etc. scales; see [15] for scale terminology). This could also facilitate the analysis of geographic variation. Third, we also envision possible uses for image analysis and automated analysis of the dataset. Reptiles are particularly suited for image analysis as the scales allow for easy demarcation and quantification, in contrast to the skin of amphibians or the fur of mammals, which have much fewer landmarks. For example, many snakes can be diagnosed by their number of dorsal scale rows as well as ventral and subcaudal scale counts (although there is no global catalog for these numbers yet, many regional field guides have such numbers, e.g., [16]). On ventral images of snakes these counts can be easily determined. There are many more uses possible, and we invite the scientific community to explore such uses.

4.5. Future Improvements and Outlook

Most obviously, we need to expand the image collection to all reptile species, and eventually to all species in the animal and plant kingdoms. It remains to be seen to what extent this is possible, but if we include variation, the task as well as the possibilities are nearly endless. While it may be desirable to have 3D scans of all species, including photogrammetric images, the added benefit appears to be limited at this time, given the huge investment for 3D imaging, in addition to the storage and time requirements.
It will remain a challenge to maintain databases and the links to numerous other resources, but the increasing use of standardized identifiers (such as NCBI taxon IDs) and FAIR principles [17] should facilitate that in the future.
