The late Jeff Jefferson was one of Britain's leading cave biologists. Throughout his life he collected animals from subterreanean sites and amassed a large collection. This is now housed in the National Museum of Wales, Cardiff, and has been curated and preserved by Julian Carter. The downloadable file contains a list of the animals in the Jefferson Collection and many other details. It is a csv file (i.e. a plain text file) and can be opened in Excel and Access. Please contact me in the first instance if you are interested in this material. I am very grateful to Julian Carter for his careful preservation of this important collection and for permission to include this list here.
