Museums hold 24 specimens collected within 10 miles of Edgefield between 1882 and 1974: 15 Animalia, 5 Fungi, 4 Plantae. 12 distinct Species records are shown. Collected by Cavender, T. M. (Ted M.), Hartley C. P., J. A. Burbaker 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.
