Re: Invert. database... what important inclusions?

Sounds a fairly comprehensive list

Specimen Data labels contain: Location name, Grid Ref., date of capture, name of collector, method of capture (eg. swept, netted, malaise trap etc), host reared from (if appropriate), habitat etc.

Determination labels contain: Genus, species, author, sex, name of determiner, date of determination (usually just year of determination).
