Museums hold 2,532 specimens collected within 10 miles of Highwater between 1853 and 1975: 2,337 Animalia, 149 Fungi, 26 Protozoa, 17 Plantae, 3 Chromista. 12 distinct Species records are shown. Collected by A. P. M., A. P. Morgan, A. R. Elliott 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.
