of that are not listed, enter them to help expand its reach.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto">Hello, everyone. My name is Crystal Boyd, and I’m a bee researcher in Minnesota. Do you know of a publication that lists the natural history collections of Missouri? My colleague,
Ron Huber, remembers that someone from the University of Missouri—St Louis published a list like this many years ago. If you have any tips about finding it, we’d appreciate your advice.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto">Also, I'm interested in similar publications that we could use as a template for compiling information about natural history collections in Minnesota. The idea is to report the
collections that exist, contact information for their curators, and short descriptions of their holdings.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto">Thanks for your thoughts,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto">Crystal
