content: "Field Number 0175189" was in Collection Data but this is an incorrect field number and as of June/2007, it is unknown what 0175189 refers to. The actual correct field number is unknown for this record and the larvae jar for USNM 278009 was not found in collection as of June/2007. Also, South Carolina in the legacy collection data is incorrect.

content: The larval jar that has this catalog number could not be located. When this number was queried during Family 219 project it was discovered that much of the data connected to it was incorrect. The USNM number has been confirmed to belong to a Scaridae specimen. The data has been updated and there was a thorough search made for a larval jar with USNM 278009 Mycteropera data but one could not be located. There is a larval project in process at this time and possibly that is why it cannot be located. The Scaridae original computer label has been left in the jar due to the error discovered so that it can be seen that the label did in fact have "Scaridae" originally entered for this USNM number. All data needing updating has been updated to the correct data.
