Catalogue of the Ornithological Collections of the Nova Scotia Museum (Curatorial Report #30)

Abstract

Since the first report on the ornithological collection was produced (Scott, 1967), the collection has grown by about 50%. In order to make available to interested persons and institutions a current account of the collection, and to correct several errors in the first catalogue, this revised catalogue has been prepared.

As of April 30, 1975, the museum's collection contains the following:

• 683 study skins, of which 90 have been relaxed from mounts.
• 144 mounted specimens
• 386 sets of eggs
