Collection data for Australian Museum, Sydney, family Nannastacidae specimens (Crustacea, Cumacea)

The Australian Museum, Sydney (AM) holds a large number of specimens of Cumacea (Crustacea). Within the family Nannastacidae 10 genera and 108 species have been identified. Cumacea specimens in the museum have been collected around Australia during the last four decades, mostly by museum staff. Among these samples, 48 were described as new species in a recent publication by the author (Petrescu, 2018, Rec. Aust. Mus. 70(1):1–111, see link below). Collection data for all AM specimens examined in the above work are prefixed “P”, are cross-referenced to the Australian Museum database, and are published here as a dataset. Specimens held in the “Grigore Antipa” National Museum of Natural History, Bucharest, Romania, are marked MGAB CUM.
