[Nhcoll-l] Looking for specimens collected by Israel Aharoni

[Bentley, Andrew Charles]

Amos

Have you searched GBIF (www.gbif.org<http://www.gbif.org>)?  There appear to be about 135 records collected by an I. Aharoni in the 1930's and 40's from Israel - mammals, birds, fish, gastropds.  See attached.

Hope that helps

Andy

Subject: [Nhcoll-l] Looking for specimens collected by Israel Aharoni

Hello all,

We are trying to track the collecting of Israel Aharoni, a zoologists active at the first part of the 20th century in the middle east and the Levant.

If any of you have any specimens that were collected by him we would be very interested. This is relevant to other taxa as well so if you can pass this message along to the mammal and reptile curators it would be much appreciated.

Best,
Amos
