Type specimens of mammals in the collection of the museum of natural history Stuttgart.

(Uploaded by Plazi for the Bat Literature Project) The present catalogue documents all the type specimens found in the mammalogical collections of the Museum of Natural History, Stuttgart. We registered 78 primary types (holo-, lecto-, neo-, syntypes) and 158 paratypes or paralectotypes. Approximately half of the type specimens are vouchers for species described by Theodor von Heuglin who thereby laid the foundation for a valuable scientific collection in Stuttgart.
