Orphaned Collections
Need Homes Now!
Others Need Study!
USE ICAL!
Welcome to ICAL-Invertebrates, an Interactive
Collections Availability List. Here
you will find a list of Invertebrates collections that
are either: orphaned and available for adoption by
an institution, or underutilized and in need of
further investigation by research students and
scientists.
It is the aim of ICAL-Invertebrates to assure that
scientific collections are placed in public repositories
where they will be fully accessible for scientific
research and education.
ICAL-Invertebrates is restricted to extant taxa
(for fossils please use ICAL-Paleontology)
and excludes insects (please use ICAL- Insects).
ICAL-Invertebrates also allows you to
notify the worldwide "invertebrate" community
through an automatic distribution list that you have a
collection that either needs a new home or needs further
study.
