Museums hold 2,401 specimens collected within 10 miles of Trainfield between 1831 and 1975: 1,296 Fungi, 698 Plantae, 321 Animalia, 64 Chromista, 22 Unrecorded. 12 distinct Species records are shown. Collected by A. B. Seymour, A. B. Seymour & Clara E. Cummings, A. B. Seymour; (a) A. B. Seymour, (b) Martin 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.
