Museums hold 687 specimens collected within 10 miles of Poplar Grove between 1910 and 1975: 521 Animalia, 128 Fungi, 35 Plantae, 2 Unrecorded, 1 Protozoa. 12 distinct Species records are shown. Collected by A VERWYST, A. Braun, A. Cronquist 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.
