Museo Nacional de Historia Natural “Prof. Eugenio de Jesús Marcano” - Colección Herpetológica (MNHNSD-HERP)

The Herpetological collection of the Museo Nacional de Historia Natural “Prof. Eugenio de Jesús Marcano” (MNHNSD-HERP) houses more than 1 500 lots containing around 6 300 specimens belonging to 4 orders, 22 families, 29 genera and 149 species. Most of these records are from Hispaniola, specifically from Dominican Republic, dating from 1958 to present; however, the collection also contains a few specimens from other Caribbean countries which were received through donations.
