Recent Shells 



(land, fresh -water and marine shells). 



Our stock in Shells exhibits a wealth of forms and spe- 

 cies such as can scarcely be found elsewhere. We would 

 refer in the first instance to our catalogues; but we also arrange 

 every description of collections to special order, as for in- 

 stance for comparative studies in paleontology. In shells we 

 carry on an average upwards of 13 000 species. 



MoUusks in alcohol 



mostly from the Mediterranean, can also be had. No less 

 worth}^ of note is the stock of our 



Insect Metamorphoses. 



On demand we cheerfully furnish written lists of our 

 Arachnida, Myriapods, Crustacea, Echinoderma as controlled 

 by specialists. Especially varied selections of Crustaceans, 

 Echinoderms, Myriapods are now on Hand, large lots having 

 been lately forwarded from Haiti. 



Preparing Department. 



The institution has its own preparing department in 

 which all work of this class as stuffed animals, prepared 

 skeletons and skulls, injections and anatomical preparations, 

 as well as other alcoholic preparations etc. is performed under 

 the supervision of experts. We are thus enabled to arrange 

 and furnish complete collections for educational purposes, 

 demonstration or exhibition in an}' or all departments of 

 Zoology.
