Since the end of the 19th century, there have been collections of galls or cecidi, i.e. protuberances produced on plants by mite and insect bites or by the attack of fungi and bacteria. The FI gall collection is divided into two parts: a general one, open to the admission of new specimens, currently consisting of material mostly from Tuscany and to be referred to the general herbarium (FI-GEN); the other (this) is the Alessandro Trotter's (1874–1967) and Giacomo Cecconi's (1833–1910) 'Cecidotheca Italica', a serial collection of 575 gall samples. It was mainly compiled by Trotter between 1900 and 1918 and was distributed in 23 fascicles, each containing 25 'items'. The latter, put in envelopes mounted on 24 x 33 cm sheets, are indeed a dual specimen, and the printed labels indicate both the name of the plant and that of the gall-forming agent.\n        ","language":"eng","citation":{"text":"Cecchi L, Conti M (2026).

National Biodiversity Future Center (NBFC) is the first National Research and Innovation Center dedicated to biodiversity, funded by the MUR through European Union funds - NextGenerationEU. It is a coordinating structure that unites and enhances research efforts, while simultaneously making knowledge and technologies accessible to diverse actors working on theterritory. There are more than 2,000 researchers from research centers, universities and companies working within the center implementing basic, applied and innovation research actions dedicated to Mediterranean biodiversity to generate value for the country. The objective of this project is to identify suitable strategies for monitoring, conserving, restoring and valorising the biodiversity of species and habitats in different Italian regions. The Center provides scientific knowledge and technological innovation that make it possible to face biodiversity loss, support ecosystem resilience, monitor endangered species, and restore disturbed biological communities, contributing to the goal of protecting 30% of Italy's territory by 2030, as required by the European Union. The NBFC also has the important function of training young researchers and qualified workers l and transferring to the territory the knowledge and skills needed to protect the natural heritage, as enshrined in Article 9 of the Constitution, and generate socio-economic value. Through participatory research actions, shared planning and citizen science activities, the NBFC contributes to generate the culture of nature, bringing the knowledge of biodiversity to different contexts starting from school of different levels, raising public awareness and supporting policy makers in land planning and management."},"samplingDescription":{"studyExtent":"An Italian botanical collection representing bryological flora, of Milan and surroundings.","sampling":"Herbarium specimens had been prepared through usual gathering, fixing and storing practices, within an unquantifiable number of collecting and research activities, either organised and managed by the owner institution/person or by a donor involved in later material exchanges.

This collection was imaged within a massive herbaria digitization project led by the University of Padua (leader of NBFC Spoke 7 \"Outreach\"), and held by Picturae (Amsterdam, NL), between February 2024 and December 2025, while its first databasing was achieved with the support of Alembo (Paramaribo, SR). The Picturae imaging equipment was settled and hosted in the Italian Central Herbarium, which is part of the Florence University Museal System (SMA). The final outcome is the result of a collective effort; as a consequence, the authors of this dataset aknowledge it is just the final stage of a long walk and wish to express their deep gratitude to all those who, in various capacities, have contributed to such final achievement. First of all, we wish to thank the two project scientific responsible, Elena Canadelli in Padua and Alessio Papini in Florence who, together with the technical reponsible - Lorenzo Cecchi - followed each project phase since 2023, ensuring its execution and contributing to solve unforeseen events. Special thanks are due to the Florence (FI) herbarium staff (Stefano Di Natale, Anna Donatelli, Lorenzo Lastrucci and Chiara Nepi) for their unmissable assistance, to Stefano Martellos (University of Trieste) for his consistent support and advise, to Victor Shields and Julia Szalewicz, the two irrepleaceable Picturae project managers, to Alessio Galletti, responsible for herbarium logistics, and to the whole Picturae staff in Florence, i.e., the people who carefully handled the herbarium specimens and got their imaging at the conveyor belts: Stefania Bigi, Giulia Cavezza, Martina Coppi, Simona De Francisci, Giulia De Robertis, Andra Ioana Dumitru, Annalisa Ferro, Livia Garomersini, Tania Gianoncelli, Giulia Grassini, Leila Harkat, Martina Marcucci, Genni Serena Olivieri, Enrico Pecchioli, Valentina Rappazzo, Francesca Ravello, Daniele Romeo, Monia Ruccione, Eliana Santella, Federica Scali, Matteo Scarpelli and Elena Succi.
