Yale University (Peabody Museum of Natural History)

Yale University's Peabody Museum of Natural History will purchase new collections storage cabinets to rehouse three components of its invertebrate zoology collection. Much of this material is associated with the research of Yale's first professor of zoology, Addison E. Verrill, and it includes previously unrecognized type specimens. As a result of this grant, the collection will be systematically organized, catalogued, and properly housed in state-of-the-art storage facilities with greater accessibility for the public.
