The MAGNT bird collection, established in 1981, consists of about 6,000 databased specimens, the majority of which are from the Northern Territory. The majority of the specimens are held as study skins with a small collection of ethanol preserved and skeletal specimens as well as a minor egg collection. Recently, frozen and ethanol-fixed tissue samples have been kept for genetic studies. This dataset was downloaded from ALA (http://collections.ala.org.au/public/show/co138). Taxa were matched to World Register of Marine Species and non-marine records removed from this dataset.
