Description: | This specimen during transfer to new storage was cleaned. The original eighteenth century drawer had a badly fitted lid that had allowed a lot of of sooty dirt and fluff particles to get onto the specimens. As part of William Hunter's insect cabinet they date from some time between c. 1766 and 1783, or possibly a little later as the collection remained in London and was seen by Fabricius and Olivier during the next 20 years. |
