Svenska insektskataloger - Naturhistoriska riksmuseet
Entomology at the Swedish Museum of Natural History dates back to the 18th century. The Department of Entomology harbours valuable collections of insects and arachnids once belonging to the pioneers Carl Clerck (1709-1765) and Charles De Geer (1720-1778), both of whom had close ties to Carolus Linnaeus (Carl von Linnй, 1707-1778). One of the most important early contributions was the 8.600 insect species donated by Gustaf von Paykull (1757-1826) in 1819. [eng | swe]

Beetles in the Holocene
Beetles (order Coleoptera) have adapted to virtually every terrestrial, and many freshwater, niches. The chitinous exoskeletons (carapaces) can also be preserved
in a variety of sediments. These two factors make them suitable for palaeoenvironmental studies of climate change, vegetation and land use change. There are
over 20,000 species in Europe and 4,000 species in Britain alone, and identification is difficult. Appendix A is an annotated list of some of the main families with
some information on ecology. Fortunately there is an excellent recent collection of papers on Quaternary/Holocene entomology (mostly beetles) which covers all the
applications of beetles to Holocene studies:
