Description
Record an explicitly supplied fish-voucher preservative transcription.
Fish records distinguish morphometric length definitions, relative image scales, annulus labels, detection times and survey-effort geometry. A supplied conversion factor need not apply across species or sizes. Local labels, ratios and nominal swept areas organize observations without identifying a fish, determining age or estimating abundance.
Record an explicitly supplied fish-voucher preservative transcription.
When to use this tool
Use Ichthyological Voucher Preservative Label when you already have voucherId, suppliedPreservative, labelSource and need to record an explicitly supplied fish-voucher preservative transcription.
How to use the tool and how it works
- Enter voucherId, suppliedPreservative, labelSource. Use the units and conventions below.
- Run the tool. Correct any format, range, or cross-field input error before interpreting the output.
- Read token. Use the output convention below.
Enter voucherId, suppliedPreservative, labelSource using the field constraints below. Encode these values, in exactly that order, as a JSON array and return the serialized array as text in token. String values are preserved without trimming or external terminology lookup.1
| Input field | Meaning and units | Accepted input |
|---|---|---|
| voucherId | Voucher Id | Required. Text; minimum UTF-16 length 1; maximum UTF-16 length 8192. |
| suppliedPreservative | Supplied Preservative | Required. Text; minimum UTF-16 length 1; maximum UTF-16 length 8192. |
| labelSource | Label Source | Required. Text; minimum UTF-16 length 1; maximum UTF-16 length 8192. |
| Output field | Interpretation | Returned shape |
|---|---|---|
| token | Token | Required. Text; maximum UTF-16 length 8192. |

}Limitations and assumptions
- The result records supplied values without preservation recommendations or composition inference. Sources and asserted relationships are not independently authenticated.
- Inputs must satisfy both the field types and the cross-field conditions above. Invalid input causes an error; a successful false flag or documented placeholder is a different result.
Alternative or Complementary methods
Inspect original specimens, images, reference definitions and survey logs when verifying observations. Use a complete species-appropriate measurement or population method for age, abundance or condition questions; local scales and effort terms preserve only their stated basis.
