         Specimen class is subclassed and specialised kinds of specimens added to the vocabulary the
         same basic KindOfSpecimen terms are always included to enable naive clients to interpret

         and available via the getData() call of the LSID then this property could be ambiguous in
         which case the following procedure should be followed. If the LSID getData() call maps to
         an HTTP GET call on a stable URI then that URI could be included here. This would enable
         non LSID aware clients to access the data. If the getData() call does not map in this way
         then this property should be omitted. If there are alternative digital representations of
         the object available (e.g. a sound recording in another format) then the
         DublinCore::hasFormat property should be used. </rdfs:comment>
