Museums hold 70 specimens collected within 10 miles of Farmerstown between 1893 and 1974: 61 Animalia, 6 Plantae, 3 Fungi. 12 distinct Species records are shown. Collected by A. P. Morgan, Alleshonse? O. C., Alleshouse O. C. 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.
