Collections from Tanzania and the Eastern Arc Mts in particular,
in the Zoological Museum,
Natural History Museum of Denmark


The Zoological Museum of the Natural History Museum of Denmark has a long tradition for field work in Tanzania, and in particular in the forests of the Eastern Arc Mountains. This field work includes extensive collecting of both vertebrates and invertebrates, and today our zoological collections from the Eastern Arc are among the largest in the world. We should like to see our collections and the associated data being increasingly utilised for scientific research, conservation and education, and to fulfil this goal we are here making part of the data available online.

For more information, please contact Associate professor/Curator Ph.D., Thomas Pape
or assistant curator Mogens Andersen.
