Entomology Inventory (CAS-INV)Thanks to generous support from the National Science Foundation, Department of Entomology has inventoried and databased all of the species names in the entire pinned insect collection. This species-level database includes 6,467,135 specimens representing 147,693 taxa. It does not include information on groups of arthropods normally kept in alcohol with the exception of the Trichoptera (caddis-flies) and Embiidina (web-spinners). It also does not include information on specimens out on loan (more than 1,000,000 specimens), and the approximately 4 million specimens gathered as part of the Madagascar Arthropod Biodiversity Project.
