Museums hold 99 specimens collected within 10 miles of Whigville between 1860 and 1975: 80 Animalia, 14 Plantae, 4 Fungi, 1 Unrecorded. 12 distinct Species records are shown. Collected by Adams, W., Adler, K. K., Adler, K. K. & Dennis, D. M. 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.
