Description

The MSB Division of Parasitology maintains data on the host organisms of parasites in the MSB Parasite Collection. These are mostly observations rather than specimen records, and taxonomic determinations are often based upon the parasitologist's notation. Hosts with specimen vouchers in other Arctos collections are related to the records in those collections.

Taxonomic Coverages

  1. Mammalia, Aves, Actinopterygii, Gastropoda, Osteichthyes, Chondrichthyes
    rank: class

Geographic Coverages

The MSB host data has global representation.
