Regional context, not property-specific evidence. Museums hold 57 specimens collected within 10 miles of Madland (historical) between 1896 and 1974: 48 Animalia, 5 Plantae, 4 Fungi. 12 distinct Species records are shown. Collected by Aschinger, H. (Henry), C. Stein, DUELLMAN, W E 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.
