Specimens collected nearby
12 of 600 shownMuseums hold 600 specimens collected within 10 miles of Wheelock (historical) between 1877 and 1972: 580 Animalia, 11 Plantae, 9 Fungi. 12 distinct Species records are shown. Collected by A. Hall, Adams J. M. R., 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.
