Museums hold 870 specimens collected within 10 miles of Rome between 1872 and 1975: 830 Animalia, 29 Fungi, 11 Plantae. 12 distinct Species records are shown. Collected by A.E. Daugherty, Acker, G. G. & Class, Armbruster, D. C. (Daniel C.) 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.

Matched on this settlement's Geographic Names Information System number rather than its name, so it cannot be a different place of the same name in another state.

This settlement is recorded in the Geographic Names Information System as feature 1045164. The sheet list is computed by point-in-boundary test against the United States Geological Survey's historical topographic inventory.
