[Taxacom] Index Herbariorum

[Antonio =?iso-8859-1?Q?L=F3pez?= Almirall]

There is a global registry of herbaria that collects reliable herbaria of 
the world, "Index Herbariorum, with their acronyms. That record is accepted 
around the world, and the use of these acronyms is mandatory in the 
publications. That record is in charge of the New York Botanical Garden. I 
would like to know whether to zoological collections there is something 
similar?
