Specimens collected nearby
12 of 83 shownMuseums hold 83 specimens collected within 10 miles of Calm (historical) between 1885 and 1975: 42 Animalia, 38 Plantae, 3 Fungi. 12 distinct Species records are shown. Collected by Armbruster, D. C. (Daniel C.), Beardslee, H.C., C.N. Cloes 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.
