A Survey of Natural History Collections in New Brunswick
A survey of natural history collections in New Brunswick was carried out in1984-85. It revealed 11 institutions and nine individuals maintaining whatare considered 43 discrete collections of an estimated 401,576 naturalhistory specimens. Those categories of collections best represented inprovince were botany, entomology and geology. This survey suggests certaintaxa are markedly under-represented in provincial collections -non-vascular plants, freshwater invertebrates, and terrestrial invertebratesexclusive of insects. Natural history collections will have to be betterfunded and more adequately staffed if the full potential of provincialscientific collections is to be realized in the future.
