smaller French captive lid jars 1 and 2 liter) with N-Buna gaskets for specialized/static collections. The vial jars are topped off before they are stored in the cataloged collections.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="background:white"><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif"">I have used this system for storing small collections in two different collections that I have managed. The MSB system has been in place for 25 years and over 1/3
of our collection (about 40,000 lots) is archived in the vial jar system. We are a collection that serves research in desert fish ecology-life histories and changes in aquatic systems of NM and the desert SW so our collections contain many larval fishes and
redundant series from monitoring work. The MSB Divisions of Arthropods and Parasites also use a vial jar system with 1 liter Le Parfait jars and N-Buna gaskets. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
