• Ida (historical)
• Rappsburg
• Suiter

Museums hold 762 specimens collected within 10 miles of Dobbston between 1840 and 1974: 589 Animalia, 81 Fungi, 69 Plantae, 20 Protozoa, 2 Chromista, 1 Unrecorded. 12 distinct Species records are shown. Collected by Archer W. A., BARBOUR, DOUGLAS I, BARUCH 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.
