Bitching about biodiversity
The biodiversity heritage library is wonderful and I use it daily. See for example Carex erebus and Cardamine depressa, two plants first described by Joseph Dalton Hooker. I have used the following referencing for Cardamine depressa:

Plate III

If you check the sources you will see that both the text and the tab are linked to.

Credentials
Since her first photo upload to Wikimedia Commons in December 2017, Margaret has created 315 articles, mostly on plants and botanists. She has made 80,000+ edits in Wikidata, 15,000+ edits in en-Wikipedia, 4,000+ edits in 37 other language Wikipedias, and 9,800+ contributions in Wikimedia.

She has contributed at wikisource in English, Latin & French.

Two Protologues
Margaret has transcribed and translated the protologues for Cyperus dives, and for Prostanthera.

So what is (are) the problem(s)?

 * 1) I have been trying to work through the myriad images at The botany of the Antarctic voyage of H.M. discovery ships Erebus and Terror in the Years 1839-1843 (all 263 images), most of which are not categorised any further. However, when they are, as in for example, Anisotome antipoda, you can see that the image has been uploaded to commons four times, which is not surprising, because having been uploaded uncategorised, people cannot find them and finding the image, upload it again, only to discover it has already been uploaded. What is unfortunate is that the work people have already done in tagging these images on Flickr, does not upload to the commons... See Flickr.
 * 2) We need OCR correction (as is available at Trove) so that one's efforts at working out a text do not have to be redone by the next comer. Theoretically, this should be available at Wikisource, but wikisource is so far behind BHL, and its rules for creating text are far more demanding than the simple correction of OCR. All too often the text one wants to transcribe has not been uploaded to wikisource. Hence my protologue efforts in wikipedia (Cyperus dives) and in wikispecies (Prostanthera).
 * 3) Seems to me that there should be a place in Wikipedia for translations(?)
