[Nhcoll-l] Labels for type specimens in etanol

[Marta Pérez Azcárate]

Please, conservators and curators who have type specimens in your wet
collections. How do you label them? A red label inside etanol solution is
not a good idea, but types must to be marked in some way. Is it wright to
use a regular fluid -white- label and write “type” beside the specimen’s
name? Maybe also draw a red square in the outside surface of the glass?
Thanks for your contributions,
Marta
