Welcome to 鶹Ƶ' Fish Collection!
Much of the contents of the original collection were destroyed in the tornado of 1998, but enough jars survived to make this project possible. Of all species diversity in the collection, an estimated 40% is shown here. Thirteen families of freshwater fish and several families of marine fish are represented in the collection. Some of these families are alphabetized below. Within each family the individual specimens are sorted alphabetically by scientific name. Specimens are shown on a cm scale. All collection data, if available, is posted as well. Finally, each specimen has a link to a corresponding page in , the most comprehensive fish database in the world.
The specimens in this collection are used by several classes at 鶹Ƶ, including Aquatic Biology, Vertebrate Biology, and Fish and Fisheries.
