Brief description
The dataset is a species index of our museum’s holdings of pinned, dry specimens as well as microscope slides in our main collection, with only parts of our wet collection. Each record holds information on the number of specimens by country of origin. The dataset contains over 4 million specimens, of which 70% originate from Sweden. The majority of the material has been donated by amateur collectors, while a large proportion of the foreign material comes from several expeditions in the 1900s, especially from South Africa and Sri Lanka.
