The Dennis Curry Collection at the Natural History Museum, London

The following tables give a list of localities for which material is present in the Curry Collection, together with the age (where known) and the type of material. Benthic molluscs are mostly bivalves and gastropods, with some scaphopods and a few chitons. Samples may be washed residues or bulk samples. Slide may mean picked assemblage slide, palynological slide or a thin section. Vertebrates are mostly otoliths, but the collection also includes shark teeth, fish bones and a few mammal remains. Barnacles comprise the majority of the arthropod material. Most of the plant material is calcareous algae.

For more information on any of the material, contact the relevant curator in the Department of Palaeontology, Natural History Museum.

The tables are in the following order:
1. British material – molluscan or micropalaeontological
2. French material – molluscan or micropalaeontological
4. French material – not molluscan or micropalaeontological
5. English Channel/Irish Sea material
5. Other European material
6. Rest of world material
