Museums hold 17 specimens collected within 10 miles of Monticello between 1929 and 1975: 17 Animalia. 12 distinct Species records are shown. Collected by Foster, T. (Todd), MB Trautman, R. Rhoades 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.
