Museums hold 2,742 specimens collected within 10 miles of Stratford between 1850 and 1975: 2,582 Animalia, 92 Plantae, 62 Fungi, 3 Unrecorded, 2 Protozoa, 1 Chromista. 12 distinct Species records are shown. Collected by A S BRADSHAW, A. P. Morgan, A. Spreitzer & K. Borror 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.
