Record of cataloged fish, reptile, and amphibian specimens held at the University of Colorado Museum of Natural History. Note: This original ledger combined fish and herp specimens, which were separated by collection type in subsequent ledgers. Fish catalog numbers UCM 1-2158 are encompassed by this early ledger, with reptile and amphibian records interspersed, creating number gaps. These fish records were later transcribed into a new book (UCM Fish Catalog: No. 1-7769), which is still in use as the current fish collection ledger. Herp specimens were never transcribed separately, and this book serves as the only catalog for early UCM reptile and amphibian specimens. The herp specimen series begins at catalog number UCM 46, with fish specimens intersperesed until record 2159, where the ledger then documents a strictly reptilian and amphibian specimen series (UCM 2159-7785).
