Very interesting, what space will be allocated to insects ?
Do you know which famous butterflies collections is curated in this Museum ?

Thank you Jan for these informations. I did not remember that Birket-Smith types were there !
Quite impressed with the types of Fabricius, one of the earlier lepidopterist ...

Fabricius also described new taxa from other collections such as the Banks Collection (now in the NHM, London), the Dru Drury Collection, the Jones Collection (figured in his Icones and now in the Hope Museum, Oxford) so a number of his type specimens are elsewhere.
