Abstract:

The first record of the rare true bug species Heterogaster cathariae (Geoffroy, 1785) (Heteroptera, Heterogastridae) in Luxembourg was made in October 2022 using the community science application iNaturalist. The subsequent collection of four specimens – deposited at the National Museum of Natural History, Luxembourg – led to the first global production of genetic reference material (i.e. DNA barcodes) for the species.

Abstract:

Museums and other institutions curating natural history collections (NHCs) are fundamental entities to many scientific disciplines, as they house data and reference material for varied research projects. As such, biological specimens preserved in NHCs represent accessible physical records of the living world's history. They provide useful information regarding the presence and distribution of different taxonomic groups through space and time. Despite the importance of museum biological specimens, their potential to answer scientific questions pertinent to the necessities of our current histori

Abstract:

Over the past 20 years, the Luxembourg National Museum for Natural History (LMNH) has built a bio- and geodiversity information system to collate, manage and publish natural heritage observation and specimen data on a national and international level. To date the system counts over 2 million taxon occurrence and over 100,000 specimen records. The Museum has chosen, whenever available, public or open source software tools complying to international biodiversity data standards for recording, managing and publishing data to increase resilience, stay connected with community initiatives and mutual

In 2018 the National Museum Prague (NMP) is celebrating its 200th anniversary. Today the Museum is facing its most valuable development: brand new permanent exhibitions. Our monumental historic building was constructed in 1891 in the heart of Prague. After more than one hundred years we had to close the building and remove all exhibitions which were older than 40 years. The building has about 8,000m2 and is divided into two parts. One belongs to our Natural History Museum (NHM) collections with Zoology, Palaeontology, Mineralogy, Botany and Mycology exhibitions. Our new natural history galleri

Abstract:

The second phase of the new Earth Galleries at the Natural History Museum (NHM) was opened in July 1998, marking the complete re-display of the former Geological Museum at a cost in excess of 12 million. The Geological Museum had pioneered a new style of geology display in the early 1970s, and set a standard emulated by other national and local museums. While the Geological Museum exhibitions contained a wealth of specimens, those produced at about the same time by the NHM were often criticised for their lack of real objects. The Geological Museum passed to the control of the NHM in 1985 and i

Abstract:

As part of an ongoing phylogenetic study on the Neotropical Philonthina (Coleoptera: Staphylinidae) that includes species of Belonuchus Nordmann, 1837, Hesperus Fauvel, 1874 and Paederomimus Sharp, 1885 (Chani Posse & Ramírez Salamanca in prep.), we examined type material of species belonging to these genera as well as conspecific material from different European and North American collections. Type and non-type material were either examined by MCP during a visit to the Natural History Museum, London, UK (BMNH) or borrowed from the following institutions: Field Museum of Natural History, C

Abstract. This study aimed to determine social wasps’ species from Pampa Biome. Were examined samples of social wasps from south-central of Rio Grande do Sul state (Brazil), parts of Buenos Aires, Entre Rios, Corrientes, Cordoba, Santa Fé and La Pampa provinces (Argentina) and in Uruguay maintained in the Coleção Entomológica de Santa Cruz do Sul (Santa Cruz do Sul-Brazil), American Museum of Natural History (USA), Natural History Museum (London-United Kingdom) and Muséum National d’Histoire Naturelle (Paris-France).

Abstract:

Paleontological investigations have played a critical role in the research of the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) since its founding in 1879. From about 1950 until recently, the bulk of these fossil materials collected by USGS field geologists was housed in the U.S. National Museum of Natural History (Smithsonian Institution) in Washington, D.C, under the control of the Branch of Paleontology and Stratigraphy of the USGS. Large biostratigraphic sets of USGS collections also resided in Denver, Colorado, and Menlo Park, California, at the USGS regional centers.

Abstract:

The opportunity to study some of de Koninck's (1883) type specimens from the Institut Royal de sciences Naturelle de Belgique (RMNS), specimens from the British Museum of Natural History (BMNH), and from the Museum of Comparative Zoology, Harvard University (MCZ) has provided insight into the taxonomic relationships of some polyplacophoran taxa. It is evident that errors have occurred in relating various specimens to taxa which differ significantly. Two examples of this related to a Devonian species in Germany and a Permian species in the United States National Museum of Natural History (USNM)
