Object remarks: NRM 24257-24258 + 24261-24263 previously in one lot.
Locality remarks: Probably from the market. The non-biologist Sundberg was probably told by Rendahl only to collect freshwater fish - so when Sundberg asked for that at the market, locals probably sold anything as freshwater fish/EIÅ, 1993.
