Museums hold 125 specimens collected within 10 miles of Sandy Valley Estates between 1911 and 1973: 103 Animalia, 21 Plantae, 1 Fungi. 12 distinct Species records are shown. Collected by A W Cusick, Bolin, F. A. (Franklin A.), C. W. Ellett 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.
