Wichtige Teile seiner Sammlungen gehen auf zur damaligen Zeit bahnbrechende Expeditionen nach Alaska (William Healey Dall oder Australien George French Angas) zurück und enthalten Paratypus (Nomenklatur) Material; zu kleinen Teilen finden sich diese heute noch samt den originalen Beschriftungen und handgefalteten Papierschächtelchen in den Sammlungen der Tricottet Collection in Uster/Schweiz (z.B. 43 Polyplacophora, aufgesammelt zwischen 1890 and 1915, ursprünglich in der Sammlung von Hermann von Maltzan (Forschungsreisender), Freiherr zu Wartenberg und Penzlin (1843-1891), einem deutschen Wissenschaftler, Dichter und auch Conchyliologen; diese erscheinen später auf den Verkaufslisten von Linnaea in Berlin.).

Hi Leslie,

Linnaea Naturhistorisches Institut was a biological supply house based in Berlin since 1885, before they were based in Frankfurt, as written on the label. So the specimen has to be something collected before that. While i did some research on the subject, I did not find a specific date when the company was founded. They themselves claimed to be established since 1882, but I found some Letters from the company dated in 1880 in the archives of the MfN Berlin. So maybe they started in the 1870's.

Hope this helps at least a little bit. Even though Linnaea was one of the most prolific supply houses in Germany, there is very little know of its history.

Best wishes from the Ruhrarea,

This is a label from the Naturhistorisches Institut. From the mid-late 1800s.  Could anyone suggest a reasonable locality?  Thanks.
