The Collections: fossil invertebrates


The fossil invertebrates collection, consisting of more than 46000 items, has been divided in two sections: the first one groups stratigraphically important specimens coming from various sites of the NE Italy (26000 items); while the samples coming from other areas (italian and foreign sites) have been grouped in the second section (20000 items). Both sections are extremely important for both didactic and research.
