Dear all,

I would like to know how are your gastropoda (and bivalvia) collections organised.


  *   What is the best way to preserve gastropoda, fluid collections or dryied specimens? Or both, like from one area and date to put some of them into EtOH (70%) and some to dry?
  *   How to preserve dryed specimens? Right now we have most of them in ziplock bag (multiple from the same place and time) and in foamed box, but maybe for them the best is to have some small jars/vials? Who sells these ones in Europe? Is there any different preservation technique between small and big shells?

Sincerely,
Joosep Sarapuu
