Dr. Eldredge will present an array of animals, mostly marine invertebrates, which have been used for stamp images by many countries. These include numerous photographs and artwork of animals from one-celled species to marine mammals, including the “Birth of Venus” on a scallop shell by Botticelli. Some of these are portraits, other landscapes. Included are such scenes as the migration of the Christmas Island red crabs to diving whales.

The Bishop Museum Research Seminar Series is a monthly forum held on the SECOND THURSDAY of each month at 4 p.m. usually in the Pākī Conference Room.
