Arachnology is the study of spiders and other Arachnida. Within these pages, you can learn more about the Burke's terrestrial invertebrates division, its collections, and the ever-popular "Spider Myths".
The collection at the Burke Museum includes 125,000 spiders, as well
as other terrestrial invertebrates such as 37,000 butterflies and
moths, and some 250,000 additional specimens including worms, cave
fauna, scorpions, and a very small flea collection.
