Research collections are an important part of natural history museums. They are libraries of biodiversity and geodiversity and are often used in very diverse fields of scientific research. For example, biological specimens and their associated data are used in studying the past, present, and future distributions of important or threatened species. Join Dr. Giermakowski for a fascinating look at the MSB collection of reptiles in New Mexico, including unusual and threatened species that live along New Mexico's rivers.
Dr. Tom Giermakowski is a Senior Collection Manager of the Amphibian and Reptile Division at the Museum of Southwestern Biology at UNM.
