Small Orders Slide Collection

The Small Orders Slide Collection comprises the records of all the slide-mounted material of Archaeognatha, Collembola, Diplura, Protura, Psocoptera, Thysanura and Zoraptera housed in the Small Orders Collection at the Natural History Museum, London at the time of project completion (June 2025).

Each specimen record has been published with an image capturing both the slide and its associated labels and creating an inventory record with a unique identifier (Data Matrix barcode) and taxon information.

The data resource generated by the project is available using the Data and Resources link. Please search for the relevant taxa as this dataset is part of a project covering a range of orders.
