The red coral (Corallium rubrum) is a gorgonian endemic to the Mediterranean and the rocky bottoms of the Atlantic adjacent to this sea. Formerly it was a keystone species as it played an important role in how the coral community was structured. #MNCN250 #Corals #HistCol #Museums

#OTD in 1904 arrived the skin and skeleton of the #okapi (Okapia johnstoni) donated to the MNCN by the Belgian government. It was a very valuable gift as very few museums had a specimen of this species, which was unknown to science until 1901. #MNCN250 #Mammals #HistCol #HistSci

Within #SYNTHESYS+, historical microscope slides of #Bryozoa have been digitized. Thanks to #digitization we can see the morphological differences in the colonies and create a digital image that can be shared for study through international portals. #MNCN250 #Museums #HistCol

The MNCN's ichthyology collection houses 375,000 specimens of 2,350 different species. This cabinet contains preparations of scales, otoliths and pharyngeal teeth of continental fish from the first decades of the 20th century. #MNCN250 #Zoology #Fish #HistCol #Museums #NatHist

Sometimes the collections hide specimens of species that had gone unnoticed since their entry into the collection. Such is the case of a snake collected in the #Philippines in 1886, which is the second known snake of the species Calliophis salitan. #MNCN250 #Snakes #HistCol

#FossilFriday The carapace of #glyptodonts consisted of numerous bony plates, which in adult individuals were welded together to form a rigid shell of variable thickness. These osteoderms were found in 1788 on the banks of the Luján River #Argentina. #Mammals #HistCol #MNCN250

Pliny the Elder, 1st century AD, thought that coral was a plant that hardened when it came into contact with the air, turning into a stone that turned from green to a very intense red. #Corals #HistCol #Archives #VanBerkhey collection #SciArt #NatHist #Museums #MNCN250

Abbe's camera lucida manufactured c. 1890 by Carl Zeiss Jena and preserved in its original case. Before the development of #microphotography, this device was used to project microscope images, facilitating the drawing of samples on paper. #Science #HistSci #HistCol #Museums

This Egyptian cobra (Naja haje) was collected in Morocco in 1908. It was formerly common in the Mediterranean region, but is now very rare. Large numbers of animals are caught for use in local markets by snake-charmers in Egypt. #Zoology #Snakes #HistCol #NatHist #Museums

The horns of Longhorn cowfish (Lactoria cornuta) are mostly hollow and composed of mineralized collagen fibers. They may have evolved to make it more difficult to swallow for predators. #Zoology #Fishes #ReefFish #HistCol #VanBerkhey collection #SciArt #NatHist #Museums
