Object remarks: Large specimen previously in exhibition, without original label (condition good; catalog number 73 according to exhibition label); smaller specimen (slightly dessicated), with only metal tag (73) + label (Andersson?) /k./. Identity of both specimens should be confirmed by a specialist! Reunited in 2018. /EIÅ, 2018
Locality remarks: Time period estimated. Silva Castro is probably rather donator than collector. A single accession is assumed although several years in the span 1865-1868 is mentioned in documents and on labels. /EIÅ, 2009
