Ecological Collection

Traditionally housed in physical repositories, fragile ecological specimens are at risk of damage from repeated handling. Through digitisation, we can protect these natural treasures while transforming traditional collections into dynamic, interactive resources that are accessible to researchers, educators, and the public, fostering global engagement and advancing scientific understanding of the natural world.

Our Collections

'Biological marine specimens offer fascinating insights into the biodiversity and ecosystems

of Plymouth, the wider South West, and around the world.'
