Museums hold 533 specimens collected within 10 miles of Ritters (historical) between 1893 and 1974: 529 Animalia, 2 Unrecorded, 1 Plantae, 1 Fungi. 12 distinct Species records are shown. Collected by ALVIN PYLE, CHAS M BUTLER, CLARENCE CLARK 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.
