content: Specimens from the Wilkes U.S. Exploring Expedition and the National Institute were received and catalogued at the same time as the War Department collection. This specimen may be from the Wilkes expedition or the National Institute and was assigned to the War Department in error. The collections were being catalogued at the same time, so that records could easily have become mixed up. However, no Peale number from the Wilkes collection has been identified for this artifact.
