             FISH & HERP COLLECTION CURATION INFORMATION


Information about the management and curation of ichthyological and
herpetological collections is available in the Biodiversity and
Biological Collections Gopher (huh.harvard.edu) under Collection &
Management of Biological Collections.

The information is key-word indexed.  The data may be of interest
to workers in other fields especially in regard to fluid
collections.

The information included in these files are based on:

1) a 1979 American Society of Ichthyologist and Herpetoligsts
   (ASIH) subcommittee report (Fink et al)
2) 10 issues of the ASIH Curation Newsletter (1980-1990).
3) Papers presented at a 1992 ASIH Collection Workshop.
