A database COLOtsuka is a specimen database based on the Coleoptera collection collected in Kumamoto Prefecture, Kyushu by the late Mr. Isao Otsuka. The collection was donated to the Kyushu University Museum. Mr. Otsuka mainly studied and constructed a vast general collection of insects of Kumamoto Prefecture, Kyushu, western Japan. The total number of specimens at present is 80,041 (July 3, 2017). Each record consists of 19 items according to a format of the Darwin Core of the Global Biodiversity Information Facility (GBIF), such as scientific name, country, collecting locality, collecting date, collector, etc.
The COLOtsuka is managed by a text database management system SIGMA.
The COLOtsuka file is supported by a Grant-in-Aid for Publication of Scientific Research Results (Head Investigator: 2005-2015: Osamu Tadauchi, 2016: Munetoshi Maruyama) from the Japan Society for the Promotion of Science.
The use of data in this database is free of charge if the objective is academic study or educational purposes.
