Abstract: Preliminary notes on the zoological collections of the Bianchi Institute of the Barnabite Fathers in Naples.
The authors present some preliminary observations on the zoological collections kept until recently in the Bianchi Institute of the Barnabite Fathers in Naples (Italy) and later transferred to the Denza Institute in the same city. Preliminary investigations have shown that the collections are the result of several acquisitions that were made mainly in the first half of the 20th century. Although these materials are known to some extent in scientific literature, in particular palaeontology, they have never been the subject of an exhaustive catalogue. However, due to the presence of significant specimens, the authors believe that these collections deserve a fair description in the panorama of Italian museums.
