#140: Angela Marmont Centre for UK Biodiversity

Part of the Natural History Museum is the Angela Marmont Centre for UK Biodiversity.


It carries out important work.

From the description:

One of the centre's key roles is to support the individuals, schemes and societies that record, monitor and protect the UK's biodiversity.
What you can do in the centre:
  • get help identifying specimens you've found with the centre's Identification and Advisory Service
  • make use of our visitor space which includes microscopes and photo-stacking equipment for photographing specimens
  • access our UK biodiversity reference collections of specimens and the London Natural History Society's library
  • if you're a member of a natural history organisation, you can book our workshop space and meeting rooms
