Museums hold 1,702 specimens collected within 10 miles of Craigville between 1866 and 1975: 818 Animalia, 661 Plantae, 151 Fungi, 61 Chromista, 8 Protozoa, 2 Unrecorded, 1 Bacteria. 12 distinct Species records are shown. Collected by A. B. Seymour, A. R. Hodgdon, A. R. Hodgdon; E. J. Hehre 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.
