“Side Catch” is a collection of invertebrates that includes three subcollections: The “Honeybee Collection I-II” has bees from a beekeeper who loses some of their insects every winter; The “Side Catch Collection I-III” comprises animals that were caught by a biologist as side catch while trying to collect some other species; “Own Collection I-IV” includes animals that I killed either accidentally or purposely, and a data sheet with dates, causes of death and location.
