Southeastern Louisiana University Herpetology Collection

The majority of the collection is comprised of specimens from the southern United States, particularly southern Louisiana. We also have moderately large holdings of specimens from the western United States and the West Indies.

In addition to fluid specimens, we have a collection of amphibian and reptile tissue samples for genetic analyses. Most of these tissue samples have corresponding voucher specimens in the fluid collection. We also have a histological (slide) collection for studies of reproductive anatomy in amphibians and reptiles.

The museum is also home to the Harold A. Dundee Herpetological Library, a collection of thousands of biological books, journals, and reprints, particularly herpetological texts.

本数据集主要收录了来自美国南部的标本，尤其是路易斯安那州南部的标本。此外，我们还拥有来自美国西部和西印度群岛的标本，数量适中。除了流体标本外，我们还拥有用于遗传分析的青蛙和爬行动物组织样本。这些组织样本中大部分都与流体收藏中的凭证标本相对应。同时，我们还拥有用于研究两栖动物和爬行动物生殖解剖学的组织学（切片）收藏。博物馆还设有哈罗德·A·邓迪爬虫学图书馆，这是一座拥有数千本生物学书籍、期刊和重印本的收藏，尤其以爬虫学文献为主。
