Museums hold 115 specimens collected within 10 miles of Cottage Hill between 1893 and 1974: 90 Animalia, 15 Plantae, 10 Fungi. 12 distinct Species records are shown. Collected by Andreas, Barbara; Cusick, Allison, Bogue, E.E., Buker, W. 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.
