Most helminths in the collection are from Australian native vertebrates, but there is material from Australian domestic and zoo animals, livestock and humans and from hosts collected overseas.  Many of the worms in this collection were donated by one of Australia\u2019s most famous parasitologists and zoologists, Professor T. Harvey Johnston.  Some of Johnston\u2019s specimens were collected when he travelled to Antarctica as Chief Zoologist with Sir Douglas Mawson in 1929 as part of the British, Australian and New Zealand Antarctic Research Expeditions.  \nMaterial is either kept in bottles of ethanol or mounted on microscope slides.  The AHC is used frequently by researchers and students, nationally and internationally, for taxonomic and biodiversity studies.\n", "source": "data.sa.gov.au", "info_url": "https://data.sa.gov.au/data/dataset/f47e5aea-fbcc-49b8-b1b3-b48dca31ec79", "start_date": "1860", "end_date": "2022", "file_title": "Information about parasitology at the South Australian Museum", "download_url": "https://www.samuseum.sa.gov.au/collections/biological-sciences/parasites", "format": "HTML", "file_description": "The SA Museum manages this dataset using the KE EMu collection management system.
