Either labelled as being from from Canary Islands, [?dated 1869] or Brazil [?1873] on printed labels. 20 speceimens have no labels at all, and none are identified.
Some specimens are so fragmentary that they have not been kept. Some of the labelling may be suspect - a fairly neotropical-looking cassid beetle is labelled 'Canary Islands'. Part of Scott Maxwell collection, which includes some material originally collected by Thomas Chapman. The collection was originally in 45 store boxes but some transferred to a cabinet. | Subjects: | Zoology | Source: | Hunterian Museum | Address: | University of Glasgow,
