Museums hold 1,735 specimens collected within 10 miles of Matville between 1829 and 1975: 1,695 Animalia, 32 Plantae, 8 Fungi. 12 distinct Species records are shown. Collected by Abbott, R; and others, Abbott, R; vonder Heyden, Jonna, Albin, H., Bernhardt, G. et al. 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.
