Description

Collections from Tanzania and the Eastern Arc Mts in particular, in the Zoological Museum, Natural History Museum of Denmark. The Zoological Museum of the Natural History Museum has a long tradition for field work in Tanzania, and in particular in the forests of the Eastern Arc Mountains. This field work includes extensive collecting of both vertebrates and invertebrates, and today our zoological collections from the Eastern Arc are among the largest in the world. We should like to see our collections and the associated data being increasingly utilised for scientific research, conservation and education, and to fulfil this goal we are here making part of the data available online.
