Re: [GSAS-Member] UW Fish Collection



Some years back we DID have a tour of the UW fish collection. Yes, they are 
preserved.
Ted Pietsch of the UW gave us the tour and talked to us about the Anglerfish 
that he
researches. He is in the news now because of a new species of Anglerfish that 
he is
describing:

It is interesting to see the stuff that real ichthyologists work with. The 
rolling
shelves are worth going to see.
