That’s it for all the material collectors in the base version of the game. However, near the end of the story, Nata will act as an ambassador allowing you to send the collectors out as well as retrieve their materials from him at any base camp, saving you from having to travel to every zone each time. Keep an eye on the estimate section when sending collectors out because they will bring back fewer materials the lower the stars they have. This means, at times, you may need to send someone else out to get you Honey or Herbs due to them having more stars in the estimate section.
