Museums hold 1,915 specimens collected within 10 miles of Brownhelm Station between 1853 and 1975: 900 Animalia, 798 Fungi, 180 Plantae, 14 Protozoa, 13 Chromista, 10 Unrecorded. 12 distinct Species records are shown. Collected by ?, A. A. Wright, A. E. Recksecker and others. Each is a physical object with a catalogue number, and each entry opens the museum's record. This is what was collected and kept, not a survey of what lives here - nothing can be concluded from a species being absent.
