Cataloguing shells

Re: Cataloguing shells
et, I have never heard of anyone using the Abbott system of numbers here in England or anywhere else. As both myself and Paul have stressed it is a bad idea to use numbers anyway, far better to put a label with the specimen with full data when known. That way the labels and the specimens can never get separated as would a journal containing the numbers.
Oh, and I worked for Maidstone Museum in Kent, England where I was Honorary Curator of Mollusca and Insecta.
