Arachnology
 |
The arachnology section is founded on a long-standing tradition of the Senckenberg museum. In the year 1833 the ‚Senckenbergische Naturforschende Gesellschaft’ obtained the collection of Karl Friedrich Wider. Since then arachnology developed in Frankfurt into a centre for Germany and Europe. In a worldwide comparison Senckenberg is listed together with important museums such as the American Museum of Natural History in New York. |
