New Archive Hosts Deep Ocean Species - Irish Weather Online
Most were incorporated into the Scripps Marine Vertebrate Collection
(MVC), a fish archive used by scientists around the world. The
collections formed the basis of studies on the systematics of marine
fishes by Rosenblatt and others. But due primarily to a lack of space at
SIO, much of the treasure trove remained unsorted. These and more
recent collections of fishes now number more than 400 inside containers
big and small.
