| Popis: | The collection of Philippe Fastré at RBINS includes 400 drawers, 37.000 specimens and approximately 2.000 species of lepidopterans (Insecta). The majority of species in this collection are Erebidae and Noctuidae from Central and South Asia. To help make this information available we digitized the type material of this collection. Out of the 400 drawers,191 paratype specimens belonging to 44 species were retrieved and digitized together with their original labels. The majority belonged to the family Noctuidae. The amount of species and type specimens contained demonstrates the importance and value of this collection. |
