The following list of codens (we use this term in preference to acronyms, as explained in the introduction) is complete for this directory, and includes variations that have appeared in the literature if known to us. We doubt that the list is complete and
we will welcome additions.
A name followed by a question mark (?) indicates that the person did not respond to the questionnaire and, therefore, we are not sure of the location or status of the collection.
[This is a fairly long list (166K) and may take a while to download before appearing on your screen.]
You can also visit our Insect and Spider Collections of the World search engine to quickly view what we've got databased so far (including links to various museums and collections on the web).
