The Herbonautes launch their first Paleontology mission!

Do you want to become a Paleonaut?

The citizen science site, les Herbonautes, decided to extend its missions to other disciplines, other naturalist collections, than herbaria, starting with the computerization of a catalogue of paleontology. This Palaeonaut mission is part of the relocation of the palaeontology collections and the future renovation of the Palaeontology Gallery of the National Museum of Natural History. This collaborative work on the 11,345 specimens of this mission will help develop the user's community and test new ways of documenting the collections.

It will start tomorrow, Wednesday, June 10!
