Mollusc records for specimens held at the Stoke-on-Trent Potteries Museum

Land and freshwater mollusc records extracted by Staffordshire Ecological Record from the collections of the Potteries Museum and Art Gallery, Stoke-on-Trent. The collections are made up of contributions from a range of individuals. The quality of the data varies dependant on the original collector and the grid references for most of the older records have necessarily been inferred by museum staff. The records cover the whole of the UK including Ireland, although the majority of records originate from Staffordshire. They include the 'Wattison collection' - 181 dried shells of land and freshwater gastropods and freshwater bivalves collected in north Staffordshire mainly between 1908 - 1911 by John T. Wattison.
