Museums hold 952 specimens collected within 10 miles of Vermilion-on-the-Lake between 1880 and 1975: 517 Animalia, 349 Fungi, 76 Plantae, 8 Unrecorded, 2 Protozoa. 12 distinct Species records are shown. Collected by ?, A. A. Wright, A. E. Ricksecker 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.

The federal mineral resources record lists 1 working within 5 miles of Vermilion-on-the-Lake: 1 producer. All of them still produce. What was taken out: Stone, Crushed/Broken, Flagstone. Distance is straight-line from the map coordinates, so a quarry counted here may appear on a neighbouring settlement's page as well.

Every working recorded in Lorain County

The eight closest, with where each one stands in the county. Distances are straight-line, computed from the Geographic Names Information System coordinates.

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 1049275. The sheet list is computed by point-in-boundary test against the United States Geological Survey's historical topographic inventory.
