The EARDC - Aquifer Biodiversity Collection (ABC) is a curated repository of preserved specimens and associated digitized data representing fauna from groundwater and groundwater-dependent ecosystems. The collection is geographically focused on Texas, particularly the Edwards Aquifer region, with supplementary material from Mexico and other areas of the United States. Specimens are maintained alongside standardized metadata to ensure traceability, reproducibility, and long-term research value.
