Description: | A vast range of plant and animal slides have been produced in the University since around 1840. This collection of glass zoological mounts include a variety of biological material such as annelida larval forms, porifera, anoplura, and a range of epidural scales and feathers. They were created, acquired, contributed and used by staff and students including Professors William Carmichael McIntosh, D’Arcy Wentworth Thompson and Harold Garnet Callan, and Dr David Burt. The collection also houses examples from some of the most exceptional international commercial microscopical mounters including Charles Baker, Richard Suter, Fredrick Enock, Johann Dietrich Moller, Fritz Meyer of the Statzione Zoologica and Harris Biological Supplies. | Subjects: | ZOOLOGY EDUCATION slide MICROSCOPE | Source: | University of St Andrews | Address: | KY16 9AJ | Creator: | CALLAN, Harold Garnet | Contributor: | University of St Andrews | Identifier: | BP:C79 | Language: | en-GB | Relation: | MC:C48 |
